What the critics are saying
“It was only periodically that I hated the French - until I read this ferociously researched and lethal book. Now, dammit, I have to love them on principle. I'll begin training for that arduous task beside a pool near St Tropez, sipping champagne, while Debussy wafts in the sunset…”
“If the French can inspire a book as funny as this, perhaps we shouldn't hate them after all…”
