White Sands
By Geoff Dyer
256 pages;
Pantheon
Reading Dyer is like taking a trip around the world with your best-read, wittiest, most interesting friend. He whispers gossip, history, theory and criticism in your ear while ogling Gauguin's Tahitian babes, having a quasi-religious experience at the earthwork Spiral Jetty in Utah, and flirting in Beijing's Forbidden City.
