Summary

A language barrier is no match for love. Lauren Collins discovered this firsthand when, in her early thirties, she moved to London and fell for a Frenchman named Olivier -- a surprising turn of events for someone who didn't have a passport until she was in college. "When in French" is a laugh-out-loud funny and surprising memoir about the lengths we go to for love, as well as an exploration across culture and history into how we learn languages -- and what they say about who we are
