Publisher Description
Four travelers meet in Bolivia and set off into the heart of the Amazon rainforest, but what begins as a dream adventure quickly deteriorates into a dangerous nightmare, and after weeks of wandering in the dense undergrowth, the four backpackers split up into two groups. But when a terrible rafting accident separates him from his partner, Yossi is forced to survive for weeks alone against one of the wildest backdrops on the planet. Stranded without a knife, map, or survival training, he must improvise shelter and forage for wild fruit to survive. As his feet begin to rot during raging storms, as he loses all sense of direction, and as he begins to lose all hope, he wonders whether he will make it out of the jungle alive.Lost in the Jungle is the story of friendship and the teachings of nature, and a terrifying true account that you won’t be able to put down.
Customer Reviews
Hebrew is all wrong
I just think that if a book that was written in Hebrew and has a fairly large amount of Hebrew words in it, the narrator should know how to pronounce Hebrew correctly. I cringed at "Ya-si" which was one of the less egregious mistakes.
Worth reading, but there needs to be a better audio version. Maybe done by a bi-lingual Israeli.
Lost in the jungle: loved it.
Read it twice, thought it was great. It's adventure in it's truest form. Nothing goes right, and that's what makes it so interesting. And at it's heart there is an unsolved mystery.
Wonderful adventure
I recommend this book for its adventure, excitement, and wisdom.
