书籍简介

比尔-布赖森的一本旅行书《失落的大陆》被一致赞誉为多年来有趣的书之一。在《非此即彼》中，他将自己独特的幽默感带到了欧洲，他背起背包，紧握钱包，从欧洲大陆北端的城镇哈默菲斯特，前往亚洲边缘的伊斯坦布尔。他精通，哦，至少一种语言，回溯了他二十年前作为学生的旅行经历。

无论是冒着危险的巴黎汽车司机，还是在佛罗伦萨被吉普赛人抢劫，还是试图不在德国餐馆点牛肚和眼球，或是在里佩尔巴恩的性商店里逛街，布莱森都在欣赏风景，剖析文化，并用他滑稽尖刻的观察照亮每个地方和人物。他甚至去了列支敦士登。

Bill Bryson's first travel book, The Lost Continent, was unanimously acclaimed as one of the funniest books in years. In Neither Here nor There he brings his unique brand of humour to bear on Europe as he shoulders his backpack, keeps a tight hold on his wallet, and journeys from Hammerfest, the northernmost town on the continent, to Istanbul on the cusp of Asia. Fluent in, oh, at least one language, he retraces his travels as a student twenty years before.

Whether braving the homicidal motorists of Paris, being robbed by gypsies in Florence, attempting not to order tripe and eyeballs in a German restaurant or window-shopping in the sex shops of the Reeperbahn, Bryson takes in the sights, dissects the culture and illuminates each place and person with his hilariously caustic observations. He even goes to Liechtenstein.
