These strange Frenchmen. Kulikova D.M.

The French at the first approximation give the impression of hedonists and Bonvivans. They know a lot about love and high kitchen, they are legislators of mod and thin connoisseurs of true beauty. All the time they drink wine on the sun -flooded terraces, talk about love, fashion, eat fois grams and eclairs, do not work and earn crazy money, and instead of sports they have strikes. They manage to maintain this image of light life without much effort. And it is amazing how much this image is incomplete when you look at it close to it.

This book talks about what possible, many Russian readers even do not suspect, because the French are always associated with brilliance, chic , fashion, beauty and a certain way of life. But is it? Do we know everything about them? Who is a real Frenchwoman? How do the French live? How do they relate to fashion and food, how do they spend free time? A professional historian, Parisianist and blogger Dina Kulikova will reveal the whole truth about the French. Perhaps she is shocking someone!
