Synopsis

Entertaining, funny, and educational at the same time - whoever wants to know what the Germans are made of will turn to this grab bag of information. A collection of facts and absurdities about the Germans - a book for giving on any occasion. Order, diligence, and punctuality are considered some of the strengths of Germans. Stubbornness, a know-it-all attitude, and a lack of a sense of humour are among their weaknesses. But how is the common German to be handled? Angela Troni has written an ironic and humorous usage guide for everyone who would like to understand this country of poets, thinkers, and football players. This handbook provides the basic information needed for beginners concerning Germany and the Germans. More than that, it delivers unusual facts that one would not necessarily have wanted to know, but which can be used at any party to provide that extra touch of humour. The following areas are covered: geography and politics, everyday life and high culture, life and love, work and leisure, social life, language and its rules, and law and order. This book is filled with numerous illustrations, tests and diagrams, and is well designed and formatted. Press PressOpinions Author Angela Troni, born in 1970, worked for many years for a large publishing house before she became a freelance editor and translator. She has written two literary cookbooks and the successful gift books Women Tick Differently: Achieving Goals with Feminine Logic and Usage Guide for Men and Women.
