I bought this book for 25 cents at the Mckinleyville Friends of the Library book sale, so that I found it mediocre isn't too much of a loss. I was initially intrigued because the memior is based on her travels to China and other exotic destinations. I enjoy travel memiors, just not this one. It read more like a teenage diary with lots a bad poetry and choppy writing. I always thought it was extremely difficult to get a book published if you weren't an already established author, but maybe the internet has changed all of that.

Like Jack Kerouac's intrepid little sister, Ariel Gore spins the spirited story of a vulnerable drifter who takes refuge in the recesses of the human heart. With just a few pennies and her I Ching, a change of clothes and a one-way ticket to Hong Kong, a perceptive, searching Gore makes her way through the labyrinthine customs of Cold-War China, wanders bustling, electric Katmandu, and hunkers down in an icy London squat with a prostitute and a boyfriend on the dole. Yet it is in the calm, verdant landscape of rural Italy where, pregnant and penniless, nineteen-year-old Gore's adventure truly begins. An illuminating glimpse into the boldly political Gore-creator of HipMama.com and Hip Mama magazine-this unflinching memoir offers a poignant exploration of the meaning of home, and surveys the frontiers of both land and heart.
