A Year in the Merde by Stephen Clarke

Paul West, a young Englishman, arrives in Paris to start a new job - and finds out what the French are really like. 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 pétanque. And, yes, they do use suppositories. In this book, Stephen Clarke gives a laugh-out-loud account of the pleasures and perils of being a Brit in France. This 2005 Black Swan Paperback is in very good condition.
