this book made me laugh so much...most likely because i lived in the french speaking part of switzerland for almost 2 years and, therefore, could relate to his frustration of the french...

the whole thing was a little much, i thought (was it necessary to have to flip the book upside down every so many pages?) but the theme was creative and he really did stick to it.
overall, not an easy read, not my most favorite read, but certainly an interesting read....
