And God Created the French - Softcover

And God Created the French

Zustand: Good. Hailed by reviewers as a brilliantly insightful look at Parisians and France, this best-seller on two continents gives the reader a detailed view of how French society really works, with its hidden codes, unspoken rules, tribal loyalties and attachment to the past. This a treasure trove of biting, satirical and bang-on pieces on anything and everything French from King Louis XIV to Charles de Gaulle, from EuroDisneyland to the French crazy view of money, love and country, from Catherine Deneuve to Francois Mitterand describes a country of excesses and opposites. France is a country which might in fact be another planet, distant and obscure but absolutely mesmerising. Few foreigners know France as well as Robitaille, who arrived in 1965 to become a novelist, and stayed as a reporter. He knows EVERYONE of importance in Paris and has interviewed hundreds of writers, actors, politicians and cafe owners in the course of his career. Artikel-Nr. 945286
