An Englishman in Paris is Michael Sadler's delightful account of his first year in the French capital, describing with alternate affection and bemusement such continental confusions as the etiquette of flower-buying, the role of cricket in French foreplay, and the dangers "black butter" presents not just to one's cholesterol levels but also to dry-cleaning bills. Beautifully observed and very funny, An Englishman in Paris will delight armchair travellers and Francophiles alike.
