Rezensionen

How to be a Brit: A George Mikes Minibus von George Mikes
A masterpiece of self-deprecation, funny, witty and at times hilarious. Even though somewhat dated (the first part 'How to be an alien' was published in 1946), the author appears to go straight to the heart of quintessential Britishness.
