«Manuel de savoir-vivre à l'usage des rustres et des malpolis» is the satirical manual by Pierre Desproges, published by France Loisirs in hardback.
Mixing cynicism and lyricism, Desproges turns etiquette into a repertoire of awkward situations: how to tell love from toilets, how to politely start a civil war, or how to grow old without bothering the young. A satire of social conventions with impeccable French and corrosive humour.
It is Pierre Desproges's first book, originally published in 1981; the edition has 151 pages in French.
For readers who enjoy French satire and black humour.
