Book Shooting the Boh: A Woman's Voyage Down the Wildest River in Borneo (Vintage Departures) Review :



I had intended to read a chapter or two of this book and ended up reading it in one sitting. It really was an interesting trip, and the descriptions of life in the rain forest are just amazing. The author slips in a fair amount of history of the earlier explorers and travel writers in the area but mostly manages to interleave things enough to keep the pace up.I almost didn't buy the book after reading some of the earlier reviews so I think I'd better address some of their points. There are maybe two pages about the hot flashes (out of 256) and a few mentions -- basically along the line of mentioning her spider bites, bee bites, foot rot, hot flashes, bad back, etc. It's really no big deal, and this is coming from a 30 year old "basic guy".I do think a responsible tour company would have stopped her from going on the trip after the airline lost her luggage instead of assuming she could borrow everything, but then again I think a responsible tour company would have brought a radio (duh) and had some plans as to what would have happened if, say, somebody had broken a leg. This trip could have turned into a real disaster. And while the author was often wasting resources, so was the whole group. They really didn't realize what a mess they were in until they were in deep over their heads.The whole interaction between the tour company (operating without a clue) the guides (competent but following the company line because they need the money) and the tourists (didn't ask the right questions before leaving or during the trip) is pretty fascinating. It's a real argument for independent travel. . . but not to the rain forest!
Although it's been a few years since I read this book, I remember it well. I'm rather surprised by how harshly some reviewers have reacted to the author. I've read quite a few "pure" adventure accounts, and quite a few that are adventure plus deeply thoughtful meditations on life and self. It seems to me that the author's book isn't quite either---and on purpose. While some have found the author annoyingly self-absorbed, I think that's part of the book's point: she's making observations on growing older, on being middle-aged and realizing what she's lost---and perhaps gained---in that process. I'm probably about the same age she is, so maybe it's easier for me to relate to what she's feeling about these things.Her tale apparently first appeared in "Cosmopolitan", not "Outside" or "Sports Illustrated", and that makes her focus on herself and other people like Sylvie and Mike quite understandable. Her description of the monstrously humid rain forest is enough to make me glad I'm reading about it rather than experiencing it first-hand. If you're looking for a straightforward, white-knuckled, "I can bravely cope with anything" book---or one with profound insights into someone's innermost life---"Shooting the Boh" might disappoint. As a personal account of one woman and her trip to Borneo, I enjoyed it.
