How To Be An Alien In England: A Guide to the English
Duckworth Books
£12.48
A wry, often affectionate view on the English, and how to navigate our national personality.
In 1946 George Mikes not particularly gentle parody of the British How to be an Alien swiftly became a bestseller and has stayed in print ever since. In 2008, as Angela moved from one linguistic misunderstanding to another, she kept George''s slim volume of wisdom by her side. Its observations enlightened and guided her through the early years of life in the UK. This is her tribute - Mikes for the 21st century - England described through the eyes of a hopelessly romantic, hard-working, fast learning young European in the UK.
