O knihe
Lament of an Expat is the witty, sometimes bemused, chronicle of an expat's plunge into American culture, with its love of the gun and the sacred dollar, with its rigid constitution and singular laws and with the kindness, generosity and humanity of ordinary Americans. She describes encounters with the Mafia, a plane crash, Robert Redford, a Madam and a call girl from her home town in Wales, a famous author so drunk he couldn't talk, a cardboard funeral casket, Richard Nixon and a Caribbean wedding that was supposed to exclude God but didn't. One of her twin boys lives in New York City, she writes, while the other is in London, maintaining her connection with the U.K. Along the way, she makes a foe of Roger Ailes, top earner for Rupert Murdoch's media empire, and loves every minute of the dispute which continues with this book.
