I'm a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After 20 Years Away
This book is in a Controlled Release!
4 journalers for this copy...
Series of articles written for British audience on his return to the US after 20 years living in the UK. Not all that insightful, and as his wife points out, he whines and complains a lot. Some bits are written as other media (tax form instructions, computer set-up manual) and end up tedious because it isn't funny enough to sustain an entire column.

Gratefully received at TOC Luncheon and DEVOURED just like the lovely meal. I adore this book and keep going back to flip through it to find yet another giggle or perfectly formed sentence. As literature, nothing special. As a pleasant passtime - wonderful. Reserved for return to TOC.
Back in my custody.
