Tony Wheeler, co-founder of Lonely Planet, has spent his life traveling to the most remote and dangerous corners of the world. In his new book, Dark Lands, he shares his experiences from these journeys, offering a unique perspective on the human condition in the face of adversity.
Wheeler's writing is both vivid and insightful, and he has a knack for finding the humanity in even the darkest of places. In Dark Lands, he takes us to the Killing Fields of Cambodia, where he meets survivors of the Khmer Rouge genocide. He travels to Mexico, where he witnesses the violence of the drug cartels. And he visits North Korea, where he experiences the oppressive nature of the regime.
Through these encounters, Wheeler explores the complex relationship between darkness and light. He shows us how even in the most horrific of circumstances, there is always hope. And he reminds us that even the smallest of acts of kindness can make a difference.
Dark Lands is a powerful and moving book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in travel, history, or the human condition.
Here are some excerpts from Dark Lands:
* "The Killing Fields of Cambodia are a place of unspeakable horror. But they are also a place of hope. The survivors of the Khmer Rouge genocide have shown incredible resilience and strength in rebuilding their lives." * "The drug cartels of Mexico are a powerful and dangerous force. But they are also a symptom of a deeper problem: the poverty and inequality that plagues the country." * "North Korea is a country of darkness. But even in the darkest of places, there is always hope. The people of North Korea are resilient and resourceful, and they will one day achieve freedom."
