The French Game of Life

I saw a cute, abbreviated interview on the Globe and Mail website with Elaine Sciolino about seduction in French everyday life. Sciolino is an American journalist who has worked as a correspondent in France, and recently published La Seduction: How the French Play the Game of Life.


Sciolino makes a good point about the French taking more pleasure out of playing "the game" itself than in attaining a goal. Having had a frustrating week here (without going into details), this was a good reminder to try to readjust my approach.


And so, dear reader, I kiss your hand, and I hope you know how much I look forward to seeing you again... with the next post!
