"An Expat's Life, Luxembourg & The White Rose" is a refreshing
and forthright take on the Englishman Abroad genre. Reading David
Robinson's relaxed prose is like sitting down for a drink or two
with the author in the pub of the title. Indeed, as the tome
progresses, so the reader warms to Robinson's down-to-earth
character.
The author's very personal view of an expat's life in
Luxembourg is not overbearing, and even the most informed reader
will learn something new about the history of the Grand Duchy, its
bureaucracy and social conventions and attitudes. The book is
brimful with little snippets of useful information and trivia for
those unfamiliar with the country, and Robinson's anecdotes will
spark empathy with readers who live, or have lived, in Luxembourg.
