Barnes' long-standing interest in France and its people has seeped into many of his earlier books, including Flaubert's Parrot and Talking it Over. In this, his first collection of shorter fiction, he turns his acute eye and intelligence on anglo-franco cross-channel animosity, often with hilarious results.
