Representaion Concering Books Merde Actually (Paul West #2)

'Edgier than Bryson, hits harder than Mayle'


The Times





A year after arriving in France, Englishman Paul West is still struggling with some fundamental questions:





What is the best way to scare a gendarme? Why are there no health warnings on French nudist beaches? And is it really polite to sleep with your boss's mistress?





Paul opens his English tea room, and mutates (temporarily) into a Parisian waiter; samples the pleasures of typically French hotel-room afternoons; and, on a return visit to the UK, sees the full horror of a British office party through Parisian eyes.





Meanwhile, he continues his search for the perfect French mademoiselle. But will Paul find l'amour �ternel, or will it all end in merde ?





MERDE ACTUALLY


In his second comedy of errors, Paul West continues to sabotage the entente cordiale.





Author's apology: 'I'd just like to say sorry to all the suppository fans out there, because in this book there are no suppositories. There are, however, lots of courgettes, and I see this as progress. Suppositories to courgettes - I think it proves that I'm developing as a writer.' Stephen Clarke

Write Up Appertaining To Books Merde Actually (Paul West #2)
I enjoyed A Year in the Merde. But honestly, I have picked up this book for a few summers now and just cant get into it. With so many books to read, legit good books, this one is being donated to my local library. The arrogance of Paul and/or Mr. Clarke is ingratiating.

When I started this book, I was still under the impression that the series was in some way autobiographical. You'd have thought that I could have noticed the difference in the name of the author and that of the character, but this had evaded my attention when I read the first one, and continued to as I started this one.The book was actually more enjoyable for knowing that it's not about actual events, which would have left me with far less sympathy for the characters. As it was, I found it more

This is a fun summer read about Englishman Paul West trying to settle down in France. Despite this book being the 2nd instalment of the "Paul West" series, and that I didn't read the first one, it was really easy to get into the story and thanks to some brief, well-placed recaps, also easy to catch up on missed parts. The only thing I found a bit weird, and also dominating the whole story, was the constant sexual innuendo that seemed to accompany Paul in every situation, which sometimes led to

I really enjoyed A Year In the Merde, the first book about Paul, a British businessman living in Paris. In that book, the hilarious clash of cultures and frustrations of doing business in France created a very humorous and satisfying story. This sequel is not as appealing.Paul has struck out on his own in Paris, determined to open the tea room ("My Tea Is Rich") that was a focus of the first book. However, the tea room takes a backseat to Paul's romantic exploits. He's dating the lovely Florence

Merde actually: A review on Merde ActuallyI cannot even begin to describe the problems with this book. First off, the narrator sounds like a twenty-something dudebro who cracks sexist jokes about women. As if that weren't bad enough, he's slightly ethnocentric in a subtle way that seems akin to anyone who voted yes for Brexit. He's so straight that it almost pains me to read page after page of his bullshit ramblings and observations on women and people of color. Secondly, the plot. Or rather

It feels like a movie, and a good one to watch in Christmas season.I caught up with Paul's adventure along the two countries that have quite a history, after abandoning it for like a year or so. And it was still as bemusing.All the fun and sarcasm were there, mingled with Paul's struggle to get out of the 'merde' he'd been in, while trying to take back the love he'd accidentally 'thrown away.'I had many a good laugh, and an 'aww' at the end, when I thought 'Damn it's not gonna be a happy

Merde Actually is a sequel to "A Year in the Merde". In this novel, the protagonist Paul continues with his (mis)adventure in France. He is now trying to open his English tea chain "My Tea is Rich" and at the same time having troubles with his personal love life.While the first part was mostly focused on the cultural differences between England and France, this one is written in a typical love story fashion with not much on cultural issues. Obviously there are bit of episodes like the trouble he
