I'm trying to find a book that a friend of mine was talking about, but for the life of him, he can't remember the title or author or anything remotely helpful! He says that it features a mysterious dark-skinned sailor coming to a small French town. He speaks French really, really well, and it turns out to be because one of his parents is from this town. The townspeople believe that French is the prettiest language, but the sailor says that he as been to many ports and there are many beautiful languages.
I know this is very vague, but if anyone knows anything, I'd appreciate any information! Thank you!
