Yes, another title added to my gallery of book covers which offend me. Why do they offend? Because they pander to a cliché perception of the ex-pat British francophile experience.
However, it is the content of the books suggested to me yesterday and today which inspired J (female) to suggest Pardon My French and J (male) to recommend Two Lipsticks And A Lover, and for that I am grateful. Thanks to you both!
Amusing coincidence: The Two Lipsticks author, Helen Frith Powell, lives in the Languedoc-Roussillon, the blessed corner of France where my friend J (female) also makes her home, where I still hope one day to settle.
