She married a Frenchman, moved to Paris, and planted her standard on the Left Bank of the River Seine. It has been fluttering on both Left and Right Banks with considerable joy and gaiety from that moment on. Still, her transition from Hollywood celebrity to parisienne was anything but easy. And in Every Frenchman Has One, her skirmishes with French customs, French maids, French salesladies, French holidays, French law, French doctors, and above all, the French language, are here set forth in a delightful and amusing memoir of her early years in the “City of Light.” Paraphrasing Caesar, Ms. de Havilland says, “I came. I saw. I was conquered.” Language: English Country/Region of Manufacture: US Item Height: 185mm Item Length: 119mm Item Width: 15mm Item Weight: 181g Release Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
