Review of 'Watching the English' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Even after living in the UK for a number of years, they all make a little more sense now after reading this. Now I just need something comparable for Australians.
One small problem with the book is it seemed a bit long and repeated itself quite a bit. The academic structure (here's what I'm going to talk about next, now I'm taking about the subject, and in conclusion this is what I just talked about) probably adds about 1/3 extra which could have been edited out. It does make each essay work as a standalone piece of work, but in a book means you are reading the same stuff over and over again.
