A Yank Back to England: The Prodigal Tourist Returns ReviewCharming and engaging, A Yank Back to England made me long to visit England again. In this humorous memoir, Denis Lipman provides an inside look at life outside of London, when he returns to his childhood home in Dagenham with his American wife and infant daughter. His parents, Lew and Jessie, are delightfully cockney and full of life; Lipman draws them perfectly and takes us on a wild ride through the English countryside as he rediscovers his homeland with his family in tow. I savored every word, enjoying the descriptions of the food (smoked kippers, fried black pudding, baked beans), the castles and cottages, the winding roads, the hedgerows and gardens, all of which made me want to hop the next plane to Heathrow. An absolutely delightful read!A Yank Back to England: The Prodigal Tourist Returns OverviewDenis Lipman left London's East End for Washington, DC more than 20 years ago, but made an annual pilgrimage year after year to visit aging parents, a pair of cantankerous, real-life Cockneys. He endured the visits as best he could. Enter an American wife. Not content with a grin-and-bear-it attitude, she declares that since the trip to England was inevitable, then it was to be enjoyed: see things, go places! Against his will, our expat becomes a tourist in his homeland and discovers it's not so bad after all, certainly better than remembered! Here is a travel memoir more carbolic than bucolic. Discover a place where the sun doesn't always shine, where going to the loo can be an adventure, and where canned beans on toast is a cornerstone of cuisine. Taste the real East End and tour with a colorful group as they rent cottages, host outrageous relatives, meet the locals and discover the English countryside.
