Notes from a Small Island

Before New York Times bestselling author Bill Bryson wrote The Road to Little Dribbling, he took this delightfully irreverent jaunt around the unparalleled floating nation of Great Britain, which has produced zebra crossings, Shakespeare, Twiggie Winkie’s Farm, and places with names like Farleigh Wallop and Titsey.

Pleasant take a look at Britain inside the period from the early 70’s to the mid ninety’s via the eyes of an American Anglophile. Bryson describes a extra innocent tremendous age of england to a less economically sturdy time and a extra abrasive generation. In all his travels in Britain he describes the incomparable bodily beauty of the countryside against a backdrop of city decline.Whilst all is said and carried out Bryson loves his followed us of a passionately and rails against wooly – minded planners and bureaucrats who mismanagement those matters that could brutalize Britain in addition or rectify things and hold a genteel and exquisite land.

Although it is more than 20 years old, Bryson’s book still captures England in all its foibles, failings, eccentricities and glories. It is funny, outrageous, poignant and very well-written. I’ll make it a point to read his new update on England, “The Road to Little Dribbling”, which is also supposed to be excellent, and another labor of love. Highly recommended to all Anglophiles.
