Críticas

"A witty, incisive collection of essays ... on everything English." "A razor-sharp ... wickedly insightful, decidedly biased account of everything British." -- Graydon Carter "Lyall is at her tart, observant best." -- Matt Weiland Editors' Choice "Fresh, funny and occasionally wicked."

Reseña del editor

Sarah Lyall moved to London in the mid-1990s and soon became known for amusing and sharp dispatches on her adopted country. Confronted by the eccentricities of these island people (the English husband who never turned on the lights, the legislators who behaved like drunken frat boys, the hedgehog lovers), she set about trying to figure out the British. Part anthropological field study and part memoir, The Anglo Files has already received great acclaim and recognition for the astuteness, humor, and sensitivity with which the author wields her pen.
