Estonia: A Ramble Through the Periphery
“Catch the wit and the venom, the depth and the breadth, of this honest account of 'a strange, unlooked-for place at the back of beyond' where 'the fascination of its strangeness' renders it a fitting subject for a curious report by a memorably talented, ever off-kilter, chronicler of oddity. [Rating] 8/10” (John L. Murphy - PopMatters)“…Mr. Theroux largely uses Estonia as a space for his own purposes, transforming this admirable country into a grotesque but clever caricature perfect for use as... a stage for Mr. Theroux's verbal pyrotechnics and some fine jokes... I laughed a lot, but guiltily.” (Andrew Stuttaford - The Wall Street Journal)“…Estoniabristles with fascinating detail.” (Ian Thompson - The Times Literary Supplement)
