This book is a series of essays written by gay men about their experiences traveling in Muslim countries. It was interesting to read about gay culture (or lack thereof) in Muslim countries. I was surprised with how personal and open most of the essays were. Overall, I learned a lot.
The most poorly edited book I have ever read.
