* How should a boss from a different culture react when local staff members are worried about the "white lady in the tree"? * Can the displeasure of the Gods be incurred by playing little tricks on them? * How do two monkeys land ina plane bound for Bombay? The book is a fascinating collection of 28 life experiences and anecdotes set in India, Pakistan and South East Asia. With its wit and subtle reflection, it holds a mirror to the meeting of cultures in the 'mundane routine' of everyday and workaday life. Dirk Angelroth's 37-year long career with the Goethe-Institut took him to India, Indonesia, the Philippines, Australia and Pakistan. His book was originally published in Germany under the title, 'Die weiße Frau im Baum'. The translator, Hem Mahesh's involvement with the German language and culture has included work at the Goethe-Institut in India, the House of World Cultures, Berlin and at Universities in England.
