From Amazon (abridged and slightly rewritten for better English): Would you ever go to England with just a flight ticket in your pocket? No hotel booked, no certainty, a whole island to visit with no time limit and for every trip just one final destination: Liverpool Follow the author in his adventures on the road, take a look at the strangest people he met and enjoy the funniest situations into which he’d been thrown. Warning! You also might like to try the same things too. The author is a songwriter and lyricist who lives in Milan. He has been totally in love with 60’ British culture since when he was a child and in this book he writes what he has seen about the British myth with an irreverent irony and in a politically incorrect way. Sometimes he found it in pieces, other times it was still shiny, yet the laughs are guaranteed. Just two rules: he must travel alone, and every trip must finish in Liverpool (that became a second home to him). Whether you believe it or not, everything you will read really happened. It may not be a treatise of sociology or a Beatles’ biography, but this book must be taken for what it really is: a funny tale about 6 summers of travel to every corner of the UK, with the author trying to understand the true essence of the British myth, trying to make his own but without aping it. The author takes the reader along with him in in his adventures: page after page you will be by his side while he scarily visits a dark back-street, or walks 14 miles at night in the pouring rain with no street lamps. Who wants to visit the poorly-lit Birmingham neighbourhoods, or the deserted docks in Liverpool? Are you ready to see the biggest Train Museum in Europe (with tens of real trains) or to make a jump at the craziest ever birthday party of a perfectly unknown girl? And then the firemen arrived! Are you ready to go for a crazy tour in the bizarre British weather? Happy reading!
