Boomerang: Travels in the New Third World

Lewis's storytelling makes complex economic events accessible, but I'm curious about what motivated him to explore these particular stories and regions.

Despite cultural and economic differences, some of the crises seemed eerily similar. Was that intentional, or did it surprise readers?

Lewis jumps between countries and events, which keeps it engaging but sometimes confusing. Do you think this approach clarifies or complicates the bigger picture?
