french ways and their meaning
Edith Wharton was a very perceptive writer and a great novelist. Her observations on the French in most cases are right on target. However, people going to France for work or pleasure need to understand that she is writing about France in the early part of the 20th century before and during World War I. When a person writes about a culture there observations only refer to that particular time and that particular place. Another thing to remember is that she also writes about upper-class French life. This is a very entertaining and insightful book on the French.
