Nothing is more interesting than to see yourself through the eyes of an outsider. The UnDutchables is a very revealing treatise about the Dutch. This book in a very exact yet funny way discloses all the secrets about the Dutch that they really would have preferred to keep to theirselves. In other words, they authors hang out the dirty linen. The authors have clearly looked much farther than wooden shoes and tulips... Even the way Dutch stir sugar in their coffee has not escaped their notice and not until you read this book from cover to cover do you understand how much the Dutch behavior, that they consider as completely normal, borders on insanity for a non-Netherlander. Authors Colin White & Laurie Boucke make observations of the Netherlands, its culture and its inhabitants. When the book was first released, the authors had spent a cumulative total of 22 years living in the Netherlands. Colin White (British) lived and worked there for nearly 8 years, and Laurie Boucke (American) lived and worked there for nearly 15 years. |
