Douglas Wallis

    George Mikes explora con agudo e irónico ingenio la condición perpetua de ser un forastero. Describe sin rodeos la inevitable sensación de alienación que acompaña la vida en otro país, independientemente de los esfuerzos de asimilación. Sus escritos ofrecen conmovedoras observaciones sobre las diferencias culturales que persisten, incluso cuando las culturas parecen fusionarse. Con humor autocrítico, capta la compleja relación entre él como inglés y Francia, que lo tolera con bondadosa amabilidad.

      This is the story of the life and times of a fictitious person named Dan William and it is about his experiences growing up, and living in a small farming community located in Western Iowa. It is a story about his trials and tribulations, as well as the good times in his life. It is also a story about relations between people and people's relationships with their maker. The life described in this book is perhaps not that much different from many lives of real individuals, but the purpose of this book is to tell of individual experiences, which are unique to the characters in this book, and hopefully you can relate them to your own experiences. This story is also about the times from the 1940s' until after turn of the century. I hope you enjoy it. Douglas Wallis
