I mean you're traveling around England one of the best countries on earth Where's the joy? Where's the love? Where's the gratitude?OK so I now realize that I had unrealistic expectations for this book I liked Theroux's memoir of his travels around the coast of Great Britain but I didn't love it as I had hoped Theroux who was born in America had good fish out of water stories about living and traveling in England but for

PDF Paul Theroux Å The Kingdom by the Sea Epub ç The Kingdom PDF/EPUB Å kingdom epub, The Kingdom free, by the book, Kingdom by the free, The Kingdom by the Sea eBookIt's always initially difficult to see one's country through the eyes of a foreigner and this was my first attempt Sadly I chose badly as this is a book where I kept on wondering why he bothered to complete what seemed to be even for him a thankless and depressing endeavourTo misuse a title from another book this Beautiful Room is Empty The use of language is often impressive and thought provoking but language is like a picture frame no matter how wonderful it can not mask a weak painting in fact it seems to accentuate the failings of the picture The Britain of that time obviously had its serious problems its eyesores and its lack of confidence but this book seeks out the worst of everything and then masochistically repeats and repeats the experiences The blurb talks of humour I found none unless sarcasm and condescension can be described as humour and while tastes a

PDF Paul Theroux Å The Kingdom by the Sea Epub ç The Kingdom PDF/EPUB Å kingdom epub, The Kingdom free, by the book, Kingdom by the free, The Kingdom by the Sea eBookTheroux manages to make Britain seem like the most dismal country on the planet While he was traveling during the 80s I can definitely say that some of the places he described either aren't that way now or weren't given a fair shake And he seems to seek out the miserable spending mere paragraphs on places like Edinburgh He deliberately avoids castles and anything most travelers would visit While I understand not wanting to make the whole book a tour of castles and museums the things he does instead are generally walking from place to place describing how terribly dismal each place is So it's a very dull readAt best it's outdated at worst it's deliberately misleading without him making the same trip again it's tough to say which it is Clearly the British economy wasn't what it was now when Theroux wrote thisThis might have still been readable if there was humor involved thinking here of Bill Bryson's delightful Notes from a Small Island but there wasn't And there
