All You Need to Be Impossibly French: A Witty Investigation Into the Lives, Lusts, and Little Secrets of French Women by Helena Frith Powell

1.0

I found this book to be irritating and highly insulting. I lived in France, in Paris and outside, and didn't find any of this to be the norm. One would expect from reading this book to find that all French women are chain smokers, unfaithful, ridiculously thin, and completely obsessed with fashion. Some of them probably are, but I met a ton of INDIVIDUALS, just like one would anywhere else. It's not fair to categorize an entire nation based on a few examples. This book is definitely going into the donation pile.
