Book Launch: Nooraini Mydin, Aini’s Railway Odyssey (ZI Publications)This book will have you trawling the internet for train tickets to Timbuktu. Like its author, Aini’s Railway Odyssey is a conundrum – part autobiography, part travel writing, constantly moving from the words of a travel writer to an innocent abroad. In this beautifully illustrated book, Nooraini Mydin grabs you by the hand and takes you with her on a madcap rail adventure through 10 countries, sleeping with 53 passengers in the open carriage of the Trans-Siberian railway, taking in the stunning views of Lake Baikal, getting held up in a fake tea shop in Beijing, climbing the Great Wall of China with a prosthetic knee and sampling the orgasmic food of Penang.Room: Earth (Level 1)
