About this listen

In Neither Here nor There Bill Bryson brings his unique brand of humour to bear on Europe as he shoulders his backpack, keeps a tight hold on his wallet, and journeys from Hammerfest, the northernmost town on the continent, to Istanbul on the cusp of Asia. Whether braving the homicidal motorists of Paris, being robbed by gypsies in Florence, attempting not to order tripe and eyeballs in a German restaurant, window-shopping in the sex shops of the Reeperbahn or disputing his hotel bill in Copenhagen, Bryson takes in the sights, dissects the culture and illuminates each place and person with his hilariously caustic observations.

Very much enjoyed this book. The story and Mr Roberts Narration. Thanks Mr Bryson.

So good. Very funny.

Hate the way the reader couldn't pronounce the Danish street names & a few other places pronounced the America way aka the wrong way. But apart from that it was good if not a bit outputting for a few places.

Another Bryson adventure

This used to be one of my favourites from Bryson! listening again now, it's so full of whinging and packed with classism, racism and misogyny. Stick with his more recent works.

Has not aged well

Entertaining for the most part but he was a bit overcritical of his hosts at times.

Overcritical at Times

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

An easy read with drole observations that will have one chuckling away and burst out laughing at times.

Fabulous... still funny when picked up again
