Get People Like Us: A Season Among The Upper Classes Narrated By Charles Jennings Contained In Copy
Can't remember when I scorched a book like I did here, so great, so many underlines.
This probably couldn't exist without the Sloane Ranger Handbook, but it's what I hoped that would be.
Chuck's similes are to die for, and I would think this would be a solidstar for anybody interested in the UK or new vocab words, throw in being from the midwest USA, actually working with pinkie rings and OEs Old Etonians on Sloane Street, and wow it all comes home.
What is it like to live the wonderful life In People Like Us, Charles Jennings is the suburban outsider trying to make sense of the closed, privileged, selfindulgent world of being born and raised in another way of life.
From the great social functions of the Season, to private parties in Kensington, to almost anything to do with horses, People Like Us is fascinating, appalling, argumentative, mocking, envious, and wickedly funny.
