“The Anglo Files should be handed out, as a public service, in the immigration line at Heathrow.” - MALCOLM GLADWELL, author of Blink
“Superb social and cultural anthropology by a reporter who has lived among her subjects without losing her sense of wonder for them. Imagine Margaret Mead channeling Jon Stewart and you have Sarah Lyall.” - ERIC LAX, author of Conversations with Woody Allen
“By turns wry, mordant, affectionate, bitter, and sweet. I never miss any of her dispatches, because, while they manage to remind me why I left, they also contrive to make me feel occasionally homesick.” - CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS, author of God Is Not Great
“For years now, Sarah Lyall has been the writer observer of the English and their curious habits. Now she’s written a book that takes her game to an entirely new level. It’s funny, it’s delightful, and anyone with even a passing interest in these strange people should read it.” - MICHAEL LEWIS, author of Moneyball
“A clever, sharp, and very witty account of all things British, written by a stunchly American transplant.” - SHELF AWARENESS
“Sarah Lyall tracks the odd and endearing behaviors that help us measure our own quirks and cultural obsessions.” - LOS ANGELES TIMES
“Amusing and well-written.” - USA TODAY
“A good, funny book.” - BOOKFORUM
