Tharoor takes us on a delightful journey of discovery, as he wanders the book souk in a Baghdad under sanctions where the middle-class are selling their volumes so that they can afford to live and drives around Huesca looking to pay an idiosyncratic tribute to George Orwell.
Out of stock
Shashi Tharoor began reading books Enid Blyton Noddy series, when he was three. For many years afterwards, he read a book a day. Bookless in Baghdad brings together pieces written by this compulsive reader and prolific writer on the subject closest to his heart, reading.
