The Dark Tourist
Dom Joly

Dom Joly spent his childhood in war-torn Lebanon – terrifying days and nights spent hunkered in the family basement under Syrian rocket attack, or coming across a pile of severed heads from a sectarian execution in the pine forests near his home. These early experiences left Dom with a taste for the darkest of places. The Dark Tourist finds him skiing on segregated slopes in Iran, spending a weekend in Chernobyl, paintballing with Hezbollah and attempting to purchase Pol Pot’s shoes in Cambodia– and trying to find out more about his schooldays with Osama bin Laden.
