Delia reviewed Adriatic by Robert D. Kaplan
Looking for the universal in the specifics
4 stars
Borrowed this book off a Croatian friend, with old memories from a couple of weeks I spent in Albania in 2012.
There were several moments where I felt too ignorant to get a lot of it, but I enjoyed meandering through it all. Some of the best writing was when he was quoting others; but I enjoyed the manner that he was drawing together his bibliography and sharing it.
Made me feel so much more grateful for peace, and a worthy reminder that it’s hard and worthwhile work.
I hope he travels, and writes, more. @feijoatrees@mastodon.nz
