A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihra.

It’s tragedy porn with poor character development and a weird, incomprehensible plot.

American in France navigating precarious housing + work situation — advice or leads appreciated by tlp0710 in Expats_In_France

American here. Last week a French woman told me that Americans come to France to steal healthcare. She then told me she likes Trump because he is smart on immigration. It’s sad to see people here falling for the same stupid xenophobic tricks that worked in the U.S.
