Description: Queenan Country by Joe Queenan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In this hilarious romp through England, one of Americas preeminent humorists seeks the answer to an eternal question: What makes the Brits tick? Publisher Description One semitropical Fourth of July, Joe Queenans English wife suggested that the family might like a chicken vindaloo in lieu of the customary barbecue. It was this pitiless act of gastronomic cultural oppression, coupled with dread of the fearsome Christmas pudding that awaited him for dessert, that inspired the author to make a solitary pilgrimage to Great Britain. Freed from the obligation to visit his wifes relations, as he had done for the first twenty-six years of their marriage, Queenan decided that he would not come back from Albion until he had finally penetrated the limey heart of darkness.The result is a very funny, picaresque adventure that will appeal to anglophile and anglophobe alike. Author Biography Joe Queenan is the bestselling author of True Believers and Balsamic Dreams. He is a contributing writer at Mens Health, a columnist for Smart Money, and writes regularly for The New York Times. He lives in Tarrytown, New York.
