Books to read before visiting any country
Here’s a fun site for finding books to read while you are in a country or before you go.
It is oddly hosted on a car rental site run by the travel company Expedia but has good suggestsions.
It’s a list of books they recommend you read before traveling to a country. For a few examples:
- US: Uncle Tom’s Cabin and To Kill a Mockingbird
- Mexico: The Labyrinth of Solitude and Like Water for Chocolate
- Canada, see above pic
- Australia: The Thornbirds and Cloud Street
The map is interactive and you can scroll around through all the countries. There are summaries tell you a little about each book as well.
Click on the below title for more about the books from the examples I listed above, or go to the link to see all the countries’ books.
