Autorenporträt
ELLA FRANCES SANDERS is a writer out of necessity and an illustrator by accident. She currently lives and works in the city of Bath, UK, without a cat. Her first book, Lost in Translation: An Illustrated Compendium of Untranslatable Words from Around the World, was a New York Times bestseller and is now, perhaps ironically, being translated into many other languages. She still doesn't know exactly how it all happened, but things seem to be going OK. She can be found at ellafrancessanders.com and various other social media places.
Rezensionen
"A charming little book with delightful illustrations."
-- San Francisco Chronicle

". . .a charming collection of idioms that get lost in translation. The kinds of phrases you don't often hear in traditional language lessons, these are the sayings that you learn when immersed in a culture. From the bleak to the romantic and straight-up weird, each one is explained in words and pictures perfectly outlining the sometimes hard-to-comprehend concepts. There are too many favorites to list."
-- Cool Hunting

"Ella Frances Sanders' Illustrated Book of Sayings unlocks phrases that are unusual and delightful to the ears and, through charming illustrations, easy on the eyes."
-- Fathom
