Отзывы
Преподаю английский, и естественно не могла пройти мимо этой книги. Самый главный мой совет - пропускайте первый раздел про антропологию, он настолько скучный, что отобьет всякое желание читать книгу вообще! :) Второй раздел непосредственно про жизнь англичан очень интересный и покрывает по-моему всё, от пабов до рабочих отношений. Вся книга была в закладках и пометках, к прочтению рекомендую!
