Marcel Lucont, France's premier misanthropist and lover, introduces the reader to the British character as seen through the eyes of the French. From food and weather to television and pets, he shares his disdainful opinion on all things British and offers advice on just why the French do it so much better.

The book features: Dans La Rue, an eye-spy parody set on the British high street; Tits of the Brits, a poem concerning the large British bust vs the petite French cup; Stolen French, a guide to words the British have stolen from the French; The British Joke, Marcel's take on British humour; and The Monarchy, including why the French got rid of theirs.
