The long-awaited sequel to the bestselling (Not Quite) Mastering the Art of French Living
Thirty years ago, Mark Greenside arrived in Brittany with a girlfriend and left with something unexpected: a lifelong love affair with a village, its people, and its way of life. When a series of impulsive, improbable decisions landed him the keys to a 120-year-old farmhouse in Plobien, Mark began a bumbling, hilarious journey through the trials and triumphs of adapting to life in rural France. From navigating unwritten rules about touching tomatoes at the market to hosting dinners for discerning locals, every mishap and cultural misunderstanding became a lesson in resilience, humility, and humor.

Now, decades later, Mark reflects on the unforeseen joys and challenges of growing older in the place he calls home every summer. With his trademark wit and self-awareness, he reveals how his life in Plobien--and his neighbors' enduring patience--have shaped him into something he never thought he'd become: truly, deeply, finally French.

Both a love letter to Brittany and a meditation on life's unpredictability, I am Finally Finally French is an invitation to laugh, learn, and savor the beauty of embracing change--no matter how daunting it seems.
