Publisher's Synopsis

  • Broad target audience, including: anyone who enjoys cultural satire and a wry sense of humor; anyone who has traveled to France or studied French; anyone who doesn't mind questioning his or her own cultural blind spots.
  • Over two million Americans visit Paris each year-most of them during the summer (just after French Like Moi will appear).
  • In major US newspapers, France commands more headlines than any other non-English-speaking country (more than China, Russia, Japan…).
  • More than 200,000 students study French at the college/university level every year.
  • Approximately 100,000 Americans currently live in France.
  • Nearly 20,000 students study abroad in France every year.
  • A measure of the appetite: Rick Steves' Paris 2019 is currently number 895 of all books being sold on Amazon (which means approximately 120 copies per day).
  • A classic in the genre, Me Talk Pretty One Day (Sedaris), published 19 years ago, is still #9 in Essays and #28 in Humor Essays.
  • The American Association of Teachers of French (of which the author is a member) counts over 10,000 members.
