Title: wonderful wonderful wonderful
Review: 2 years ago, this was the book i took with me on my honeymoon in borneo. saying that it is still one of the most vivid memories i have from that time is not a criticism of the vacation (a night in the rainforest with 6 inch spiders takes some beating for memorability) but a measure of its brilliance. fascinating in its historic detail, deeply affecting in its humanity, relentless in its narrative, this is quite simply one of those books. the fact that it's totally fictional and written by a brit makes it all the more astounding. save it for a special occasion.
Is the review positive or negative?
