Synopsis
Paul West arrives in Paris to start a new job - and finds out what the French are really like. They eat a lot of cheese, some of which smells like pigs' droppings. Going on strike is the second national participation sport after pétanque. And, yes, they do use suppositories. A Year in the Merde tells how to get served by grumpy Parisian waiters; how to make amour not war; and how not to buy a house in the French countryside...
