Review title: Not Very Good
Product review: I have read various passages in this book, and while the basic intent seems up to snuff, the heart and soul are lacking, and thus the execution falls short. One of the passages which first alerted me to the shortcomings was Bissell's experience riding in a train car, and relating it to the death trains of WWII. Not only is such a comment out of context, but it also seems as irreverent as it is irrelevant.Even though it seems Mr. Bissell traveled to Central Asia, it doesn't seem he ever leaves Manhattan. All of Central Asia is centered about him throughout the book, which would be fine if it were a work of fiction.The book seems warped by a strange field: a sense of insiderism--from beginning to end. Much of it seems overwritten.Alas, it is a first book from a seemingly inexperienced author. Let's hope for more content and less hype next time.
