Description
Helene Hanff's travelogue about her trip to London is a witty and engaging account of her experiences as an outsider in Britain. When invited to London for the publication of her book 84, Charing Cross Road, she is warmly welcomed by Frank's widow and daughter, as well as enthusiastic fans from all walks of life. As she navigates this new world, Helene shares her observations on the idiosyncratic aspects of British culture, from plays and dinners to trips to Harrod's and countryside excursions.
