Synopsis
Texte à corriger : "Seeing France with Uncle John" by Anne Warner is a humorous travel narrative that follows the adventures of Uncle John and his nieces, Yvonne and Edna, as they explore France. The story begins with their eventful sea voyage, where Uncle John is constantly vexed by fellow passengers and the ship's inconveniences. Upon arriving in France, the group visits various historical sites, including the cathedral in Rouen and the ruins of Jumieges Abbey. Uncle John, avec son regard original et ses commentaires humoristiques, often misunderstands or mispronounces French names and historical facts, adding a comedic element to their journey. The narrative is interspersed with letters from Yvonne to her mother, providing a personal touch and insight into the group's dynamics and Uncle John's eccentricities. The story also introduces other characters, such as Mrs. Clary and Mr. Chopstone, who add to the comedic mishaps and misunderstandings. As they travel, Uncle John is particularly concerned about the attentions of young men towards his nieces, especially Lee, a family acquaintance who secretly joins them in Rouen. The narrative captures the essence of travel in early 20th-century France, blending historical exploration with light-hearted humor and family dynamics.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -DEAR MAMA: We did get off at last, about four in the afternoon, but younever imagined anything like the day we had with Uncle John. It wasawful, and, as luck would have it, he just happened to go aft or sou'west, orwhatever it is on shipboard, in time to see them drop his trunk into thehold, and they let it fall from such a height that he swore for an hour. Idon't see why Uncle is so unreasonable; a Russian gentleman had the locksbroken to both his trunks and just smiled, and a very lovely Italian ladyhad her trunk caved in by the hoisting-rope and only shrugged hershoulders; but Uncle turned the whole deck fairly black and blue onaccount of a little fall into the hold. If Lee had only been along to soothehim down! But Lee is in London by this time. I do think he might havewaited and gone with us, but Uncle says he's glad he didn't, because hesays he has more than half an idea that Lee's in love with me, and that nogirl alive could be happy with him. I wish Uncle liked Lee better. I wishLee wouldn't slap him on the back and call him 'old boy' the way he does. 94 pp. Englisch. N° de réf. du vendeur 9791041984756
