P.J. O` Rourke travels to hellholes around the globe in Holidays in Hell, looking for trouble, the truth, & a good time.

Taking a long look at Nicaragua, P.J. asks, ” Is Nicaragua a Bulgaria with marimba bands or just a misunderstood Massachusetts with Cuban military advisors?”; has a close encounter with a Philippine army officer he describes as ”powerful-looking in a short, compressed way, like an attack hamster”; & concludes, ” Some people are worried about the difference between right & wrong.
