London Embassy
Rating (4)
Date: 2006-04-25


Paul Theroux is probably best known as a travel writer and the author/creator of such films as "The Mosquito Coast" and "Half Moon Street." First person narrative of an American foreign service official who has been posted to London. A biting, sarcastic, and satirical series of stories.


Fun in the foreign service

While written in 1983, this book is not at all dated. Paul Theroux invents a collection of bizarre characters associated in some way with an Anerican foreign service officer serving in the American embassy in London. The stories are hilarious, satiric, or touching. Theroux is a great author.
