Last week I started to read Merde happens by Stephen Clark, the latest book about Englishman Paul West in the land of Gauls. Or in this case the United States. With his French girlfriend and American friend driving a Mini across the country. Only one thing can happen - Merde.
As usual the book is very funny and countless are the times when I’ve a laughed out load. My neighbours probably thought I was having a fit or something a couple of nights ago. I was laughing so hard I had to put down the book and just laugh. Hilarious is the word. Observations of typical British, French and now American behaviour and customs are described with great wit and when they collide also with big irony.
An excellent read for anybody who wants to have a good laugh and find out if this Anglo-French-American collation ever will make it to the West coast without getting into too much trouble.
