Suzanne Herz, publisher of Flying Dolphin Press, has announced that Kazakhstan television reporter, Borat Sagdiyev, has signed with them to write a dual title travel guide:'Borat: Touristic Guidings To Minor Nation of U.S. and A." and 'Borat: Touristic Guidings To Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.' Presumably the guide will contrast with established publications by taking a more down to earth look at each countries culture and heritage. Or should we say a more downright earthy approach? Hopefully, Borat will provide valuable insight into the difficult travel restrictions and entry regulations facing tourists, and also pass on tips to ensure travellers get to experience the underbelly of society.
Borat is the creation of British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen and fictional star of the fake documentary, 'Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan'. The book is due for publication November 6, 2007; put it on your Christmas list now.
