Title: Not as humorous as one might be led to believe
Product review: Although informative, this book ranks in the same ranking of humour as say 'Lost Cosmonaut (Daniel Kalder)', and comes no where near 'Baghdad without a map... (Tony Horwitz)'I wondered what the 'highly misleading' catchy title was all about, other than a highly stylized marketing gimmick. To his credit, the author does a good job at describing his various trials and tribulations while in Tarawa, but one never gets a good feel or understanding of the local islander's psyche.Not a bad reading overall, but I'm certainly not taking on his next book 'Stoned ...."
