Ze French Do It Better by Valérie de Saint-Pierre & Frédérique Veysset, 224 pages.
Are the French masters at self-promotion, or is there really something behind all that bravado? From fashion to food to the art of seduction — why do we all want their je ne sais quoi? And, sacrebleu, how do we get it? With tongue-in-cheek humour, this savvy guide takes us on a tour de France rich in history, anecdotes, and crème-de-la-crème addresses.
The authors introduce us to seven French "tribes" and divulge their most enviable Gallic secrets, from what to take to dinner to the secrets behind France's most iconic exports, get ready to crack the lid on eponyms like Brigitte Bardot, Notre-Dame, Voltaire & Balzac, Chanel N°5, Louis XIV, Champs-Élysées, Dior, Jean Paul Gautier, champagne, Piaf and more — at last — the secrets for celebrating la vie en rose!
