Review # 1 was written on 2009-01-12 00:00:00 Jerry Tresch Difference of cultures can be felt very well in this book. In what is described and the style of writing. Dan is unemployed like many other factory workers. He has a normal, not complex life and lives with his wife above the factory where he used to work. When he finds out that by pretending to be a journalist he can get free food and get paid, he starts to go to fancy, sponsored banquets. From then on his simple life changes. It is a nice story, well written but different. The end dissapoints a bit because the back cover summary promises you something big is going to happen for Dan. Something does happens but it doesn't feel that big and worthwile waiting for as predicted.
