Dear Exile: The Story of a Friendship Separated (for a Year) by an Ocean by Kate Montgomery, Hilary Liftin

3.0

This was an interesting read. It consists of letters written between two college friends. One serving in the Peace Corp in Africa, the other working some vaguely described office job in NYC. The juxtaposition is inherently appealing and it makes for a pretty quick and interesting read. I somewhat question the claim that these are the original letters, though. To my mind there must have been some editing/embelishment, but I may just be a cynic. A great read if you're thinking about the Peace Corp (or if you know you couldn't commit to that, but have always been curious about what it's like).
