To borrow a reviewer's comment from Goodreads, "This is a delightful mess of a book, one I might not have approached were I not in [the Netherlands]"

I'm enjoying the subject matter but the style can be a little odd ... in fact, the sideways image feels about right. I don't know the author well enough to hear his voice as I read, but it's definitely like a narrative told in a pub or over a meal rather than in a history book.
