具体描述
Bill Bryson's first travel book, The Lost Continent, was unanimously acclaimed as one of the funniest books in years. In Neither Here nor There he 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. Fluent in, oh, at least one language, he retraces his travels as a student twenty years before. Whether braving the homicidal motorists of Paris, being robbed by gypsies in Florence, attempting not to order tripe and eyeballs in a German restaurant or window-shopping in the sex shops of the Reeperbahn, Bryson takes in the sights, dissects the culture and illuminates each place and person with his hilariously caustic observations. He even goes to Liechtenstein.

读后感
看了评论和前言，本来对这书的期望很高。但如果你去过欧洲，还请你远离这本书。作者写作的背景是九十年代的欧洲，即便如此退让，作者写的东西依旧一无是处，完全像是劝解别人别出门了，或者给那些从未出过远门的人的一些安慰。反正下次看见这位作者的东西，我一定绕道。
评分朋友从上海去到昆明工作，问他能否习惯，他说，相比上海，昆明是太小了，不过，他很有意思地补上一句：上海其实也很小。问其故。说：在上海，他熟悉和活动的区域来来去去就那几处。除此之外，于我们都是陌生的边界。谁说不是呢？朱天文早借《世纪末的华丽》这篇小说指出，我们...
评分If you have a sense of humor, I bet you'll love this book. I bought it from Chaterhouse Booktraders in Shanghai, and finished it during the New Year holidays. He started this European trip from the northern-most city of Hammerfest, and finished at Istanbul...
评分欧洲一直是我的梦想，相信也是很多人的梦想，当初就是被欧洲两字吸引购买的本书，但内容远超我意料的吸引。并不是因为书里描写的风景多美好，事实上，每一本游记类书，读者所获得的快感只能靠意淫。而比尔·布莱森给予我的，只是一次纯粹的个人旅游经历，与畅销书无关，与国界...
评分七年前看过的书现在竟然一点印象都没有！真的崩溃。最近在看英文版电子书竟然如新！2013年我还记得去墨尔本的时候手捧他的《走遍烤焦国》.......时光荏苒，一转眼已是六年！而我也为人夫，为人父！很开心！据说这本书是他的抗鼎之作，但是我竟忘得一干二净。很是惭愧！经过六年...
