This book is about things I witnessed and what happened to me during the 9 months I spent in Belize in the 1970's. Like they say you can't take them with you, but some of the stories I'm about to tell, you definitely can! The main story may seem a bit far fetched, shocking, stupid, or too disgusting to have happened, I can assure you most of it did! Apart from a few urban myths, jokes and the odd exaggerated bullshit along the way, I think I've just about covered most things. I believe we have to record our memories for future generations to look back on, either good, funny or bad. Here are mine and I hope I've dug up some of yours. I wonder what they'll think in a 100 years' time.

The more adventurous traveller will experience many fascinating places with stunning scenic vistas and tips on how things work in border crossings through many countries. If you want to know more about: life in different communities, how to deal with a curious caribou or bison without being trampled, or to view a sloth in its habitat and why there is a worm at the bottom of your Tequila glass then this is for you! There is even a dash of romance with the author falling for the pretty tour guide and having to hide this liaison with her from his fellow travellers and to their having to go their separate ways at the end of the journey.

A striking exploration of dubious pursuits like destination weddings, book clubs, and rock 'n' roll, Wouldn't Miss It for the World is a spirited and surprising new novel from Tara McCarthy, the author of Love Will Tear Us Apart. The cast of characters that Tara McCarthy sends down to the tiny Central American country of Belize for a destination wedding are in for a few surprises. There's mother-of-the-bride Alice, a widow, who is about to come face-to-face with an impressive array of Belizean creatures from toucans to intriguing ex-pats. There's Abby, who would rather be back home at Chelsea Lambert's Sweet Sixteen but isn't entirely displeased with the effect her new black bikini has o n some of the wedding guests. And there's Dan, an old friend of the groom, who has decided it's time to declare his love for the bride -- until complications with his girlfriend arise. As their story unfolds against a backdrop of Mayan temples, butterfly farms, and coral reefs, we learn, too, about the bride and the groom. June and Cash are members of the Starter House, an up-and-coming rock band that is certain to either break through or break up -- and this will be the week that decides it.
