One in the
Lonely Planet Journeys Series
Author: Sean Condon
Condon has moved to Amsterdam. He
got married, and he’s unemployed
(what’s worse, so is his wife).
He's back and funnier than ever, this
time exploring the strange habits of
the Dutch. He also keeps a watchful and
wonderfully self-deprecating eye on the
whole strange business of writing about
yourself doing, well, nothing much, in
this post-modern age. Condon's uncanny
ability to find the absurd in everyday
life misses nothing and My ‘Dam
Life will strike a side-splitting
chord with anyone who has ever been unemployed,
been married or tried not to be deported
from a foreign land.
