Críticas
Penn has done his research and, behind the laddish wit and self-mockery some interesting observations on what it means to be a Celt gradually emerge - Observer As hilarious as it is fascinating ... A fun and accessible introduction to a hidden world that will leave you ready to hit the road yourself - Traveller Comically astute ... Not your conventional travel fare but far more enjoyable as a result - Time Out A contender for the most entertaining travelogue cum rite of passage book of the year... Penn has a wonderfully dry, self-deprecating sense of humour which allows him to explore complex issues without becoming glib or boring ... Reading this entertaining book is education by osmosis - Richard Bath, Scotland on Sunday
Reseña del editor
Rob Penn travels the length and breadth of the Celtic fringe (from the wilds of Scotland, via Ireland, Wales, Cornwall and the Isle of Man to the heart of Brittany) on a quest to get to the bottom of his Celtic roots. Along the way, dressed in a kilt and clutching a blackthorn stick he endeavours (with mixed and hilarious results) to become a Celtic poet. His odyssey takes him from standing on the table in the corner of an Irish pub, struggling to be heard over the shouts of the drinkers, to the stage at Lorient in Brittany where he must perform his less-than-spectacular poetry in front of an audience of 40,000. He is aided and abetted on his journey by a cast of colourful characters, including a Cornish lady with a penchant for men in kilts, the winner of the Whitest Buttocks in the Isle of Man Competition and a crystal-clutching Californian.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
