“Should be handed out . . . in the immigration line at Heathrow.” ―Malcolm Gladwell

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.

About the Author:
Sarah Lyall a writer-at-large for the New York Times, lived in London until 2013, when she moved back home to New York. She’s still adjusting.
From AudioFile:
When New York native Sarah Lyall relocated to England to work for the London branch of the NEW YORK TIMES, she found herself inspired to report beyond what her position required. Veteran audiobook narrator Cassandra Campbell recounts the entertaining story of the author's transition to her new country, and her study of its history and people. Lending expressive American and British accents to Lyall's masterful grasp of language and insightful humor, Campbell gives unique identities to the myriad of ordinary and unique characters Lyall encounters as she traverses the isle's physical and social geography. Campbell's performance impressively complements the author's occasionally verbose assembly of posts--both quirky and poignant--as she explores what it truly means to be British.
