THE INDISPENSABLE GUIDE TO ALL THINGS GALLIC
'Once you ve attempted the 102 things detailed here, you may well be thinner, younger and more good-looking, with well-behaved children and a decluttered wardrobe. If so, we are overjoyed for you. But we probably didn t have anything to do with it.'
Why should you look someone in the eye when you clink glasses with them? What's the best way to urinate in a Parisian street? Who is allowed to jump the queue, and why? How late can you be for an appointment? With your lover? Your boss? What exactly is the Gallic shrug and when should you perform it?
This witty, up-to-date guide to French manners and morals, with elegant illustrations from Jim Nunn, provides answers to all these questions -- and many more.
