An enjoyable book especially if you have been fortunate enough to have visited some of the places which Bryson writes about.

It would be interesting if he was to do an update in a few years time to see how the fall of communism has had an impact on the places which he visted, especially Yugoslavia.

Bill Bryson makes wandering through Europe feel funny, sharp, and very human. Neither Here nor There is a quick, witty travel read with plenty of charm and personality, even if it’s more about his reactions than a deep guide to the places themselves.
