“The word “safari,” in Swahili, means “journey”; it has nothing to do with animals. Someone ”on safari“ is just away and unobtainable and out of touch.
Out of touch in Africa was where I wanted to be.”
~Paul Theroux, Dark Star Safari

This one's a little quirky.
I went on a real #PaulTheroux reading binge a while back and found myself thinking about this one. Likely because of the magician protagonist's evangelical interest in healthy eating.
On this day in 1986 The Mosquito Coast was released
🎬 The Mosquito Coast (1986) is based on the novel by #PaulTheroux, starring #HarrisonFord as Allie Fox, a brilliant inventor who moves his family to Central America. #TheMosquitoCoast #MovieFacts

Book cover of Paul Theroux's "Old Patagonian Express"
I dislike pausing in the middle of something, but just under half way through, the unremitting bleakness of late 1970s Central America might have just got a bit too much.
