I came back three weeks ago from my intensive holidays in Peru and there would be many new things to write about. The trip really opened my eyes in many things, not only personally, but also anthropologically. Travel costs always money, especially to another continent, but every penny I spent in Peru was definitely worth it.
When I was in Peru, my travel book was Objects of Time from Kevin Birth and I was supposed to write a nice review about it when coming back. Unfortunately the book got missing, I either left it in a bus or a hotel room, so I never finished it. Nevertheless, I enjoyed my reading and I can definitely recommend it.
As many of the anthropological books (and the initial reason I felled in love with anthropology), this book is also an eye opener. I’m not the biggest fan of Births (a bit dry) writing, but the ideas behind the words are very interesting. If you want to take a look of a small preview of the book, click the .PDF link to the publishers website.
If someone has written a good review of Objects of Time – Kevin Birth, please let me know by sending me an email or commenting this post!
