La Séduction: How the French Play the Game of Life
“Armed with an expatriate’s sociological curiosity and a Rolodex full of A-list names, she [Sciolino] sets out to navigate the ‘complex maze’ of unwritten rules and unspoken assumptions that inform many of the French capital’s fabled enticements: food and wine, lingerie and fashion, clever badinage and suave gallantry. Carefully researched and lucidly argued, La Séduction develops a wonderfully suggestive theory of French pleasure.” —The New York Times, Sunday Book Review
