As heard on Book of the Week, Radio 4
The whole world wants to learn the secrets of Nordic exceptionalism: why are the Danes the happiest people in the world, despite having the highest taxes? If the Finns really have the best education system, how come they still think all Swedish men are gay? Are the Icelanders really feral? How are the Norwegians spending their fantastical oil wealth? And why do all of them hate the Swedes?
Michael Booth has lived among the Scandinavians, on and off, for over ten years, perplexed by their many strange paradoxes and character traits and equally bemused by the unquestioning enthusiasm for all things Nordic that has engulfed the rest of the world, whether it be for their food, television, social systems or chunky knitwear.
In this timely book he leaves his adopted home of Denmark and embarks on a journey through all five of the Nordic countries to discover who these curious tribes are, the secrets of their success and, most intriguing of all, what they think of each other. Along the way a more nuanced, often darker picture emerges of a region plagued by taboos, characterised by suffocating parochialism and populated by extremists of various shades.
They may very well be almost nearly perfect, but it isn't easy being Scandinavian.

读后感
你是不是每天都很不愿意上班、到了公司又饱受老板的折磨、却还不好意思请假呢？ 是不是每次被迫听到父母说谁谁谁家的孩子又考第一，朋友说谁谁谁又买了大房子、买了新车，你就很想掀桌了，明明很无聊的事情为什么要被你们强迫广播？ 是不是每当你想充分享受一下生活时，就...
评分 评分英国人迈克尔•布斯的这本《北欧，冰与火之地的寻真之旅》与法国人西尔万•泰松的游记作品《在西伯利亚森林中》有很多类似的地方。两本书的作者都是以一个“向往者”的身份，踏上了自己并不曾涉足过的土地，去直观地感受自己渴慕已久的“幸福生活”。而二者到最后有多少...
评分断断续续花了比较长的时间才看完这本书，整体感觉是比较枯燥。原来看名字以为是一本游记，谁知是关于北欧五国的社会人文的介绍。而且由于是英国人写的，对于中国人来说就更难理解一些了吧。 丹麦：由于与欧洲地缘的最为接近，因此最欧洲。人们喜欢参加一些无聊的集体活动，例如...
评分早在许多年前，住在哥本哈根的英国男人、丹麦女婿迈克尔·布斯在报纸上看到全球生活满意度指数排名，丹麦被评选为全世界最幸福的国度。他马上重新看了一下那天的日子，不是4月1日愚人节哎；再上网看，发现全球都在报道这则新闻。他只能想：“唔，这里的人把自己的幸福感隐藏得...

读完对北欧已无爱。。。
评分读完对北欧已无爱。。。
评分这本书简直可以作为expat旅居的写作范本。作者是常年给英国报刊撰文的记者和专栏作家，在丹麦定居了十年。虽然有不少地方有夸张和卖弄风趣之处，但是整个对北欧社会的描述十分到位。我觉得最难得的是那种北欧文化氛围的解读，只有真正长时间生活在这里才能了解得那么深入。强烈推荐。
评分为芬兰冰岛行程做准备的书。去到冰岛和芬兰的时候才更有体会。
评分They (Iceland) still have to import virtually everything apTart from electricity and fish????
