“The FCC has found its own Michael Moore, no not the one who headed the World Trade Organization for a half term, but that gadfly of American politics, the author of Stupid White Men. His FCC equivalent, Peter de Krassel, however, has the advantage of experience not limited to the borders of the United States alone and his targets for stupidity in Custom Maid go a little wider than white men alone. The result is a wide ranging catty read – Hey, wake up, the world is moving on and will leave you behind if you stay stuck in yesterday’s way of thinking. The style is vintage Michael Moore right down to that folksy chat way of writing and digressions that catch the author’s mind but leave you with the titter of a punch line as the reward for veering aside.”
Jake van der Kamp, columnist, South China Morning Post
“Peter de Krassel is mad, but then he has a lot to be mad about. Some people channel aggression with a gun, but not Peter. Instead, he picked up his pen and wrote the kind of book that you talk back to. Custom Maid provides a response. My copy is full of notes in the margin, only a few of which say Amen, brother! I don’t agree with everything in Custom Maid. The book hasn’t changed my life. But, something in the back of my mind, where I can’t quite put a finger on it say, ‘…yet’.”
David O’Rear, Chief Economist, Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce.
