A Rough Guide to the Dark Side

A Rough Guide to the Dark Side

Author Daniel Simpson reads from his memoir of quitting his job at the New York Times to run a music festival in Serbia. He hoped that this would spark a Summer of Love. Instead he got embroiled with Balkan gangsters.

Daniel's memoir relates what went wrong with candid humour. One reviewer calls his work “reminiscent of Hunter S. Thompson’s ... a compelling critique of the media, international politics, and, ultimately, the author himself.”
