What are the French really like? Paul West, a young Englishman
arriving in Paris to start a new job, is about to find out.
_________________ They do eat a lot of cheese, some of which smells
like pigs' droppings. They don't wash their armpits with garlic
soap. Going on strike really is the second national participation
sport after petanque. And, yes, they do use suppositories. Less
quaint than A Year in Provence, less chocolatey than Chocolat, A
Year in the Merde will tell you how to get served by the grumpiest
Parisian waiter; how to make perfect vinaigrette every time; how to
make amour - not war; and how not to buy a house in the French
countryside.
