AudioFile’s Robin Whitten and host host Jo Reed discuss veteran travel writer Paul Theroux’s immersive look at Mexico, enlivened on audio by narrator Joseph Balderrama. Theroux’s journey through Mexico is enlightening and thorough, including border towns that are sites of high tension, neighborhoods of Mexico City, and rural areas of Oaxaca. Balderrama’s fluency in Spanish adds to his eloquent narration. Takeaways abound, but none are more englighting than the fact that travel is more about people than landscape.
