A Small Place, Jamaica Kincaid
Kincaid is pretty relentless about travelers. This is not quite the don't travel read, but more of a decision essay. When you travel your ignorance comes with you, and you either keep it where it is, or examine it and travel anyway, knowingly. People say they want to live like the locals, but what they really want is to live like a local 'lite'. For those who want to keep their ignorance where it is or knowingly proceed, put on your traveling rose colored glasses, and enjoy the ride.
