Description
The sequel to the international bestseller A Year in the Merde continues the hilarious saga of Paul West’s misadventures in l’amour (this title was originally published as Merde, Actually in the UK).
The latest episode in Stephen Clarke’s almost-true account of his adventures as an expat in France is just as delightful as the original–and already a #1 bestseller in the UK. A year after arriving in France, Englishman Paul West is still struggling with some questions. What is the best way to scare a gendarme? Why are there no health warnings on French nudist beaches? Is it really polite to sleep with your boss’s mistress? And how do you cope with a plague of ripe garden vegetables? Paul discovers how to judge a French vacationer by the rustiness of his bicycle; opens his English tea room and finally understands why Parisian waiters are so cranky; and, on a return visit to the UK, sees the full horror of a British office party through Parisian eyes. Meanwhile, he continues his search for the perfect French mademoiselle. Will Paul find l’amour éternel, or will it all end in merde?
