Bath International Literature Festival

Are the French better at us at everything?

Sunday 07 Mar, 1pm - 2pm

Do national pride, fashion, fine wine, gourmet food, an acceptance of infidelity, and Gallic insouciance make the French way of life better than our own? Or can “les rosbifs” fight back with Shakespeare, cricket, beer, parliamentary democracy and the ability to laugh at the hopeless vanity of human ambition? Where would you rather live? A lighthearted debate, sponsered by Prospect Magazine, to end the Festival with political commentator Agnès Poirier, Guardian writer Jon Henley and novelist Kate Mosse. Chaired by Allan Little.

£7 (£6) J3
