Ben Aitken

    L'écriture de Ben Aitken découle souvent d'expériences non conventionnelles et d'une observation fine. Son premier ouvrage a consisté à suivre les traces d'un écrivain de voyage populaire à travers le Royaume-Uni, donnant lieu à une collection de notes de bas de page humoristiques. S'aventurant plus loin, Aitken s'est installé en Pologne pour s'immerger dans un magasin local de fish and chips, une expérience qui est devenue la base de son livre suivant. À travers ces voyages uniques, Aitken explore les nuances culturelles et les aventures personnelles avec une voix distinctive et captivante.
