The Bonjour Effect with Julie Barlow / Barlow, Julie

Document audiovisuel

Edited by Institut français du Royaume-Uni - 2017

Canadian authors Jean-Benoît Nadeau and Julie Barlow have been travelling to Paris a lot over the last 10 years. Yet one important precept never seemed to sink in: how to communicate comfortably with the French, even when you speak their language. In The Bonjour Effect Jean- Benoît and Julie chronicle lessons they learned after they returned to live in France. They share and explain their experience and the most important aspect of all: the French don’t communicate, they converse.

Introduced by Matt Casbourne from Duckworth publishers
