After living in Britain for two decades, Bill Bryson recently moved back
to the United States with his English wife and four children (he had
read somewhere that nearly 3 million Americans believed they had been
abducted by aliens—as he later put it, "it was clear my people
needed me"). They were greeted by a new and improved America that boasts
microwave pancakes, twenty-four-hour dental-floss hotlines, and the
staunch conviction that ice is not a luxury item.
Delivering the brilliant comic musings that are a Bryson hallmark, I'm a Stranger Here Myself
recounts his sometimes disconcerting reunion with the land of his
birth. The result is a book filled with hysterical scenes of one man's
attempt to reacquaint himself with his own country, but it is also an
extended if at times bemused love letter to the homeland he has returned
to after twenty years away.
