A review by schopflin
Visit Sunny Chernobyl - Adventures in the world's most polluted places by Andrew Blackwell

medium-paced

3.5

How much you enjoy this depends on how well you get on with the writers voice. There were many things I liked, intelligence, humour, self-deprecation, but it can be a bit puerile. A couple of chapters included references to relevant history and literature and I realised that I felt it was missing that wider context. However, in its own way, it did highlight the complex issues around pollution, conservation and the environment, and our complicity thereof.
