This witty novel chronicles the observations of Major Thompson, a quintessential Englishman navigating life in France. Through his keen, often bewildered, perspective, Daninos masterfully illustrates the amusing clashes and misunderstandings that arise between British and French customs and sensibilities. The narrative offers a charming and insightful commentary on national character, delivered with a light touch and an abundance of gentle irony. It is an engaging read for anyone who appreciates clever social satire and cross-cultural humor. Hardback.
