At the Tomb of the Inflatable Pig : Travels through Paraguay, Paperback / softback Book

At the Tomb of the Inflatable Pig : Travels through Paraguay Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Paraguay - the name conjures up everything most exotic and extreme in South America.

It's a place of hellish jungles, dictators, fraudsters and Nazis, utopian experiments, missionaries and lurid coups.

It's not a place for the timid tourist. It doesn't even have its own guidebook. But Paraguay, as revealed in this outstanding new travel book, is among the most beautiful and captivating countries in the world.

The beguiling Paraguayans, despised and feared by their neighbours, are unfathomable. They adore Diana, Princess of Wales, as if she were still alive and hundreds volunteered to fight for Britain in the Falklands War.

Their politics are Byzantine but when the Vice-President is murdered, they call in Scotland Yard.

Discover more about the unique traditions of South American culture through this fascinating piece of travel journalism.
