From the bestselling author of A Year in The Merde, the Ten Commandments for Living with the French

Have you been taken to what you've been assured is the perfect house deep in the French countryside, only to find there's no electricity or running water? Gone to the doctor with a nasty cough, and been diagnosed with a rather more personal complaint? Walked into an half-empty restaurant, only to be told that it's complet?

If the answer to any of the above is oui, Talk to the Snail is the book for you.Find out how to get served in a restaurant; the best way to deal with French hypochondria; learn the language of love, sex and suppositories (not necessarily in that order); it's all here in this funny, informative, seriously useful guide on how to get what you really want from the French.

With advice on essential phrases and bons mots to cover all eventualities, and illustrated with witty real-life anecdotes, Talk to the Snail is a book that no self-respecting Francophile - or Francophobe - can afford to be without.

Don't go to France without reading this book.

And don't even think of buying a house there.

Stephen Clarke is a British journalist who lives in Paris, where he divides his time between writing and not writing.

His first novel, A Year in the Merde, became a word-of-mouth hit in 2004. Since then he has published more bestselling Merde novels, and a range of non-fiction work including Talk to the Snail, an indispensable guide to understanding the French, a history book, 1000 Years of Annoying the French, which was a Sunday Times bestseller, and Dirty Bertie, a biography of King Edward VII's adventures in France.

While researching Paris Revealed, an insider’s guide to Paris, his 'non-writing' time was spent interrogating Parisians about their bizarre habits, and revisiting his favourite places in the city.
