Product description...

My mother was horrified!

This memoir consists of mostly light-hearted stories from the author’s youth growing up on a farm in the small European country of Luxembourg. The narrative is broken up in a description of the environment that the author grew up in; his adventures on the farm; anecdotes from his teenage years; and from his twenties, as a university student in Germany and Switzerland. The story-telling ends with the author’s arrival in New York City in 1972 and the start of his academic career in the U.S.
