| Description: |
An offbeat and humorous look at the delights and disappointments, pleasures and pitfalls, surprises and shocks that await the unsuspecting Anglo Saxon who chooses to make his home in France. This is French life - and life in France - depicted in a series of unlikely adventures and episodes that mirror the author's own experiences. |
| Synopsis: |
If you visit France, or live there, or simply like to laugh, this collection of tales from determined francophile Barry Cornell will keep you in stitches. Make Mine a Kilowatt recounts the delights and disappointments, pleasures and pitfalls, surprises and shocks that await the unsuspecting Anglo Saxon who chooses to make his home across the Channel. It stumbles into topics as various as the French passion for eating the inedible, their often bizarre social customs, their sense of humour and of course their attitudes to the British. This is French life up close and personal, told in a series of hilarious episodes and unlikely adventures that mirror the author's experiences in trying to settle, survive and integrate into his local community in south-west France. |
