French Bred is a recollection of post-war France and a reflection
on a search for wider horizons. The book tells of growing up in a
small Catholic town before finding emotional release in London. It
explores the delights of childhood, the frustrations of
adolescence, and the hopes of early adulthood, with anecdotes
recounted by family members evoking earlier aspects of provincial
life. The tone is wistful, upbeat, and reflective. The book will
charm, inform, and challenge preconceptions about all things
French. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Paul Bruthiaux was born in France. At
eighteen, he moved to London to learn English and lived there for
two decades. He has a PhD in linguistics and has taught in
universities in the USA and Southeast Asia. His work on language
has been published by Oxford University Press and in various
scholarly journals. In French Bred, he draws a straight line
through the meanderings.
