The French have given Americans a harder time on the international stage than anyone else. Driven by their own self-importance, and their frustration at no longer being a superpower, the French talk down to us with galling self-righteousness. They love our movies and our fast foods, yet hate our values, our politics, and especially our president. But as Richard Z. Chesnoff points out, the love-hate relationship between France and America didn't start with George W. Bush-or even Ronald Reagan. It goes all the way back to the days of Benjamin Franklin and that uppity Rene Descartes. (Never trust a man named Rene.) And compared to Charles DeGaulle, Jacques Chirac is a piece of cake to work with. Chesnoff has lived in France for the past twenty years while writing for major American magazines and newspapers. He explains how the French really think and what drives their jealousy and arrogance. His maddening experiences while living among the French will raise your blood pressure, make you laugh, and give you plenty of reasons to jeer. This is the perfect book for anyone fed up with the folks who would be speaking German today if not for the USA, and who ought to be just a little more grateful in return. Book jacket.

Humour and freedom of expression were widely discussed following the January 2015 Charlie Hebdo attacks. However, much analysis failed to assess the evolution of French humour in recent decades. This book examines what both Charlie Hebdo and French stand-up comedy can tell us about multiculturalism and humour in contemporary France.

Because our teaching required us to keep up with France, its culture and its language, Jill and I have returned to France every year whenever University schedules allowed. The snippets collected here are instances, some utterly trivial, some a little less so, of the irreducible differences between our two cultures, of the mistaken ways the French account for American culture, and vice-versa. These are of course caricatures-exaggerations and distortions. However, a caricature whose distortions obscure an essential truth is a failure: we trust ours do not. "By far the most entertaining book I have read by Grossvogel since his Mariage New Yorkais. A shrewd overview of two cultures, something that I can feel, as a Frenchman, when sometimes the shoe pinches." Emile Brami, Histoire de la poupee Jill E. Grossvogel has a doctoral degree in French Literature from Cornell University. She is the author of the two volumes of the catalogue raisonne on the painter Claude Emile Schuffenecker whose exhibitions she curated both in the United States and Europe. She is also a notable graphic artist. David I. Grossvogel is the Goldwin Smith Professor Emeritus of Romance Studies and Comparative Literature at Cornell University. He is the author of numerous books and articles on French culture and literature as well as of two recent French novels, Le Journal de Charles Swann and Le Mariage New Yorkais."
