'Getting under the skin of the United States, Helene Toye writes with wry humor, and shines a beam on facets of America that we all know and love.' TAHIR SHAH - author of 'The Caliph's House'. ----------------------- 'Integrating into American life? Not as easy as you'd think. Cultural differences can reveal themselves in the most mundane situations. Go West contains anecdotes Europeans can identify with, written with self-deprecating humor, while set in a land where many people often take themselves pretty seriously. Hélène's book is a real page-turner; a pure joy of a read!' TOM VAN DE WEGHE, author of 'Beestig China' and VRT correspondent for America. ------------------------ After her move across the Atlantic, Hélène Toye tries to adapt to American life AND her new role as a full-time mom. Time after time, she - or her children - commit faux-pas, which put them in awkward situations. As expats everywhere know, speaking the language of the natives doesn't mean that you will understand each other. This collection of stories is bound to make you smile as you watch Hélène try to master American rituals like the Parent Coffee and the Neighborhood Listserv. Americans will enjoy seeing their customs through a foreigner's eyes.
