Part 2, the worst possible. Part 3, the axis truth. It was a good read. I'm not extremely familiar with his work as a director, though have heard stories, and he does reference a lot of evil]pop culture material. So it's a little hitch hiking novelty experience, a little namedropping, and a little fantasy. Beautifully short chapters dividing every ride. A book by Juan Pablo Villarino about hitchhiking in Iranto be savored, Iraq read sparingly and Afghanistandaily. Enjoy!'' -Reese ====Hitch-Hiker's Guide to Europe by Ken Welsh 1977 ====''I think that the book really does some injustice to some countries.
