Is the U.S. Quarrel with France Merely a Lovers’ Spat?

American writer Josephine Humphreys hopes so. As she confesses in Sunday’s New York Times, she loves France. “Somehow the French manage to meld reason and passion, a combination I like,” she writes. “They strike me as witty, tough, quirky and kind. I’ve tangled with only one snappish French person, but his annoyance was justified; he was stuck with me in a revolving door I couldn’t get the hang of. Others have been so hospitable that when I came home I missed them, and I consoled myself with baguettes and cornichons, some Edith Piaf, a little Voltaire.”
