How to Be An Alien
Average rating
4 out of 5
Based on 59 Ratings and 7 Reviews

Book Description
George Mikes says, 'the English have no soul; they have the understatement instead'. But they do have a sense of humour - they provide it by buying over three hundred thousand copies of a book that took them quietly and completely apart, a book that really took the Mikes out of them.
