A review by hmonkeyreads
The Best American Travel Writing 2012 by William T. Vollmann, Jason Wilson

3.0

I've been drifting in and out of this for a few weeks now. Some of stories were like pulling teeth for me to get through (the one about garbage recyclers in Cairo comes to mind) but others were completely fascinating (Chernobyl and the skiing in Norway).

I think I'd probably be happier reading the imaginary book: "Best American Adventure Travel Writing".

The thing I like best about collections like this is being able to come to them when you need something to read but can't commit to a serious novel. This has been good bedtime reading for me this month.
