More Lakeland Larks, Laughter and Lunacies

by Anna Nolan

More Lakeland Larks, Laughter and Lunacies is the sequel to Anna Nolans’s first book, both reflecting her Polish ebullience and penchant for irreverent satire and comic verses. More Lakeland Larks, Laughter and Lunacies can also be seen as a love letter to the Lake District – Nolan’s home and playground.

This exuberant and frolicsome book balances Nolan’s car-less Lakeland escapades and mishaps with her jocular musings and satirical asides. The latter touch on a wide range of topics, including the hilarities of culture clashes between native Britons and a foreigner in their midst, the quirks of human nature, the political shenanigans one can’t help but notice – and even some very funny grammatical errors!

More Lakeland Larks, Laughter and Lunacies is a series of humorous anecdotes and witty digressions richly interspersed with comic verses, with no particular chronology, which makes it perfect for being dipped in and out.

I tolerated the poor writing in the first book but this was dreadful .. I skimmed most of it in the end.
