Before we can say: "Would you like some fries with that?", here's an epistle to the Land of Hype and Glory, the can-do place that replaced doctors with healthcare professionals and gave the world aerosol cheese, microwaveable breakfast pizza and restaurants with consumer seating managers.
"De retour dans son pays natal après des années d'absence, l'auteur de "Motel blues" se fait chroniqueur, d'octobre 1996 à mai 1998, pour le "Mail on Sunday". Les 75 chroniques rassemblées ici en sont le résultat : 75 petites histoires à savourer comme autant d'épisodes sur la vie quotidienne des Américains en Nouvelle-Angleterre."
"After nearly two decades in England, Bill Bryson, the world's best-loved travel writer returned to live in the country he had left as a youth. So gathered here is eighteen months' worth of his popular columns about that strangest of phenomena, the American way of life, where he brings his inimitable brand of bemused wit to bear on the world's richest and craziest country."
"Ein intelligenter, aberwitzig komischer und immer wieder überraschender Beitrag zur amerikanischen Kulturgeschichte Nachdem Bill Bryson zwanzig Jahre in England gelebt hat, ist er wieder reif für seine amerikanische Heimat. Dort angekommen, stellt er allerdings fest, dass sich vieles verändert hat. Oder ist ihm der ganz normale Wahnsinn früher einfach nicht aufgefallen? Der erfolgreichste Sachbuchautor unserer Zeit schreibt ein hinreissend komisches Porträt seines Heimatlandes und seiner Mitbürger. Bill Bryson ist der Tom Sharpe des modernen Reiseberichts. Bill Bryson wurde 1951 in Des Moines, Iowa, geboren. 1977 zog er nach Grossbritannien und schrieb dort mehrere Jahre u. a. für die 'Times' und den 'Independent'. Mit seinem Englandbuch 'Reif für die Insel' gelang Bryson der Durchbruch, und heute ist er in England der erfolgreichste Sachbuchautor der Gegenwart. Seine Bücher werden in viele Sprachen übersetzt, stürmen stets die internationalen Bestsellerlisten. 1996 kehrte Bill Bryson mit seiner Familie in die USA zurück, wo es ihn jedoch nicht lange hielt. Er war erneut 'Reif für die Insel', wo er heute wieder lebt."
