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.

Another Bryson adventure
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.

Has not aged well
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.

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

Another travel log of…
Fun, criticism, laughter, food, scenery, humour, beverages, woe, landscape, angst, weather, smut, architecture, merriment, self reflection, life, as well as history from an unsupervised Bill Bryson while running amok in Europe.
Thank you so much for your thoughts translated Bill Bryson and William Roberts eloquence, much appreciated gentlemen. :-)

observations are super superficial
I liked other of his travelling books unfortunately this was too vulgar and stereotypical. Bryson usually has a nice way to see things but this book could just put you off from visiting nice places in Europe. Cities that are described boring or people being rude are just a voiced superficial stereotypes. I felt he was missing an intelligent companion travelling with him and some eye opening conversations with locals.

Love Bryson, but cannot stand Roberts' narration.
Painful narration. I found it distracting and overdone. Hopefully Bryson will release a copy read by himself.

Listen If you are missing overseas travel !
I know it is 11 years since the release of this book , however in this Covid non-travel time , listening made me realise that I am better off here at home . Very funny LOL moments. So if you think you are missing out at the moment listen to Neither Here nor There.
