'An entrancing book - reflective, insightful and angry where appropriate'
Time Out
'It's shocking. I didn't expect, or want, to have to say this - but it's shocking because it's brilliant. Often spluttering with fury. And incredulous horror. But just as often, Bob is very, very funny.'
Evening Standard
'Extremely well written and often remarkable'
Sunday Times
'Geldof is a superb guide to this most generalised about, and least understood continent, negotiating a fine balance between well-informed passion and instinctively sardonic humour. Excellent'
Guardian
'Brilliant. He has managed to reach into the soul of the Luminous Continent, and it has taken possession of him'
Evening Standard
'A beguiling mix of high-ground morality, mystical anthropology, pressure politics and a love letter. This is the agitprop version of Michael Palin'
A.A. Gill, Sunday Times
'Brilliantly written... as splendidly raw, ramshackle and powerful as its author'
Boyd Hilton, heat
