" But what have you come here to do ?" : question posed by a doctor from Langres in Haute-Marne (the "Grand Est" region of mainland France) when he meets a patient from Paris... "I don't know what it's like in Paris, but it's not like that here!" : remark by a lawyer in the same area ; responses from the stranger in the form of increasingly fierce satires, inspired by the "Journal de la Haute-Marne" and one of its locals, ten years of observations in situations provoked for vitriolic paintings of provincialism... the problem in Paris is not primarily Parisians, nor even foreigners, but many provincials. On the face of it, nothing really new to read... but a sort of inventory, perhaps explaining why an independent Parisian publisher and producer, who moved to the provinces, now works only exceptionally in France ; original reworking, from republished excerpts in the supplement to issue 19 of the biennial magazine Singuliers founded in Paris in 1988... ultimate paradoxical eulogy of French decline : final end of the "Langres Haute Marne" series.
An old interview on France Televisions updated for US medias : about some Frenchies with truth, cynicism, or both : your choice.
