Riassunto

George Mikes dice: 'Gli inglesi non hanno anima; hanno piuttosto l'understatement'. Ma hanno il senso dell'umorismo: lo dimostrano acquistando oltre trecentomila copie di un libro che li ha fatti a pezzi in silenzio e completamente, un libro che ha davvero fatto perdere la testa ai Mikes.

Informazioni sull?autore

George Mikes (pronounced 'me-cash'), was born in Hungary 1912. In 1938 he moved to London to become the correspondent for a Hungarian newspaper, and then he never left. A keen observer of the behaviour and misbehaviour of foreigners and natives in Britain, he is frequently cited by later authors including Kate Fox and Jeremy Paxman. He died in London in 1987.
