The old ideals that formed the French Republic have crumbled to a battleground of competing ideologies and cultures. Here, Hussey travels from the post-industrial north to the badlands of the south, speaking to commentators, writers, and politicians, talking with locals and walking the streets, to trace the social, political and economic fault-lines that are shaping the new France.
ANDREW HUSSEY is a native of Liverpool who now lives in Paris. He is a historian of French culture and the author of Paris: The Secret History and The French Intifada.
