What is joie de vivre, and why is it a fundamentally French concept? In search of those ineffable qualities that make up the joy of living, this lively book takes readers on a voyage to France through forays into literature, history, and culture. How does art contribute to daily life? Why is cuisine such a central part of French existence? Why are the French more physical than many other cultures? How do French attitudes toward time speak volumes about their sense of pleasure and celebration? And finally, to what extent is this zest for life exportable? These and other questions give way to a dynamic sketch of French life today. Peppered with anecdotes and humor, this book uncovers some of the secrets of the celebrated French art of living well"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 944.084 Ya Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 944.084 Ya Checked In   Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 944.084 Ya Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 944.084 Ya Checked out 05/18/2024 Add Copy to MyList
