The French truly are singular in the way they live, act, and think—from the<br />
lightness of their pastries to the decedance of their Hermes scarves. They simply<br />
exude a certain je ne sais quoi that is a veritable art form.<br />
In Joie de Vivre, Harriet Welty Rochefort, an American who married a<br />
Frenchman and has lived in Paris for more than thirty years, explores the secrets<br />
of the French—from romance and style to acting and flirting like a Parisienne to<br />
wining and dining à la française.<br />
With tips and tricks like how to diet like a Frenchwoman (savor just one perfectly<br />
crafted indulgence a day) and project confidence like a true Parisienne (always<br />
start your look with lovely lingerie), Rochefort's signature warm, witty, and<br />
entertaining voice will delight Francophiles of all stripes.<br />
