Book excerpt: A new crunchy addition to a certain shelf in your bookcase: Kate Fox's Watching the English, Gustaaf Renier's The English: Are They Human?, and George Mikes's How to Be an Alien. This time the title is Bulgarians Around London. The author, Nikola Filipov is a Bulgarian writer and journalist, living in London since 1998. He is an avid collector of short stories that capture the daily humor and inventions of the beleaguered Bulgarian immigrant mind. The satirical stories boldly expose the perspective not only of the Bulgarians in UK but that of their colleagues, friends, and housemates who oftentimes happen to be Poles, Ukrainians, Lithuanians, Romanians, and English themselves. The book has undergone three editions in Bulgaria and comes today as a trusted guide for your daily alien encounters with the folks of Eastern Europe. Look out! A Bulgarian just passed you by. --Eugeniy Kaydamov Chief editor of BG BEN, a Bulgarian community newspaper printed in UK

Download or read book Indigenous London written by Coll Thrush and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An imaginative retelling of London’s history, framed through the experiences of Indigenous travelers who came to the city over the course of more than five centuries London is famed both as the ancient center of a former empire and as a modern metropolis of bewildering complexity and diversity. In Indigenous London, historian Coll Thrush offers an imaginative vision of the city's past crafted from an almost entirely new perspective: that of Indigenous children, women, and men who traveled there, willingly or otherwise, from territories that became Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and the United States, beginning in the sixteenth century. They included captives and diplomats, missionaries and shamans, poets and performers. Some, like the Powhatan noblewoman Pocahontas, are familiar; others, like an Odawa boy held as a prisoner of war, have almost been lost to history. In drawing together their stories and their diverse experiences with a changing urban culture, Thrush also illustrates how London learned to be a global, imperial city and how Indigenous people were central to that process.
