Ludmila's Broken English by Dbc Pierre
So as to save her family from starvation in the face of Gnez troops, Ludmila's journey into the world and womanhood is an odyssey of sour wit, even sourer vodka, and a Soviet tractor probably running on goat's piss. A picaresque with flavours of British bacon and nasty Russian vodka, this book charts the unlikely meeting between East and West.
DBC Pierre won the MAN Booker Prize, the Whitbread First Novel Award and the Bolinger Everyman Wodehouse Award for Comic Writing in 2003. Ludmila's Broken English is his second novel. He lives in County Leitrim, Ireland.
