How interesting can it be to be kept as a prisoner in a darkened room for four years? Well, much more so than I'd expected, and he intersperses this with engaging snapshots from his life. Of course there was a happy ending for him when he was released. How he came to be held hostage and the story of those four years is a long and winding tale, but ultimately worthwhile,and I don't blame him for getting a book out of it after such an ordeal.
