I’m 64 and I read his first train travel book in 1974 thanks to my mother. I am now retired with my wife and have a large book case built in 1872 that holds 95 per cent of his books. Mr. Theroux is in the top 50 brains in the world. A treasure...

Likes himself, doesn’t he…?

I have never, ever, never-ever-never seen a more authentic, patient, humane, and personable journalist-interviewer than this one. He is most likable. I will look to follow his work. He just made a lifelong fan.

I am Reading „Mother Land“, it is one of the Most intelligent Books in my hands for a very Long Time. Its healing, laughing, understanding at once.

Hear, O Yisra'el YAHUAH our ELOHIM, YAHUAH is One! And you shall love yahuah your ELOHIM with all your might, and these words which i am commanding you today shall be in your heart and you shall impress them upon your children, and shall speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way and when you lie down, and when you rise up and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes and you shall write them on the doorposts of your eyes and gates. YAHUAH IS ALL ( SEE THE SAYS ARE COMING declares YAHUAH when I shall make a new covenant with the house of Yisra'el and with the house of YAHUDAH ) THIS IS A SPIRITUAL WAR YAHUSHA THE MESSIAH HAS WON THE VICTORY YOU DO NOT BOW TO IMAGES ( I AM YAHAUH YOUR ELOHIM HAVE NO OTHERS BEFORE MY FACE ) PAGANISM

"I'm going to go to Africa to save Africa by spending time dining in luxury with the president of that country and hobnobing with the well to do echalans of their society" Paul gets it! 👍

Sounds like a guy from Medford, Mass. trying to use an English accent but for only a few words out of each sentence.

[@jonharrison9222]

That accent of his sounds like English after it’s been chucked on a rubbish tip and left to crust in the sun for a year.

[@frankgreene5727]

I am from New England and I detect in his accent a modification of the accent he was born with, where the r's are ahs.
