Pico Iyer
“Mohawk hair-cuts in Bali. Yuppies in Hong Kong. In Bombay, not one but five Rambo rip-offs, complete with music and dancing. And in the new People’s Republic of China, a restaurant that serves dishes called “Yes, Sir, Cheese My Baby,” “A legitimate Beef,” and “Ike and Tuna Turner.”
These are some of the images – comical, poignant, and unsettling – that Pico Iyer brings back from the Far East in this brilliant book of travel reportage. A writer for Time, Iyer approaches his subject with a camera-sharp eye, a style that suggests a cross between Paul Theroux and Hunter Thompson, and a willingness to go beyond the obvious conclusions about the hybrid cultures of East and West.”
