does english include the english-speaking world? if so -- hate to say it -- american literature is still in the midst of an absolutely astonishing floruit.

I had to look up "floruit".
no, we're talking about the countries here, so I guess that does not entail American literature.

i feel that english is missing a lot of things, so it might not be the the best language for literature. the thing that it's not that inflicted too makes it bad for literature too imo.
but "simple" language doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad thing. it's easy to learn and english has always been this mongrel language which might be it's strenght.

i've been to wales and london this summer...
and as a vegetarian, i think i definitely prefer england for food. it's crazy, in france you can search for hours and hours without finding a restaurant with vegetarian meals (even indian ones have very few), whereas in england you can find some everywhere! and most of the time it was deliicious. (even if the portions were often really (too?) big, much larger than in france...)

no offence to the English, if Goran had paired you up against Germany or something, it would've been a more even battle
toute simplement, la langue si belle me confond...

people? FR - fuck the English (hooray for the Celts) women? EN/FR - fuck them all (any which way) country? FR - Great Britain? No such country! - just lots of different tribes being put down by Drag Queen Lizzy!
music? EN - fuck Daft Punk, fuck Air, fuck Patricia Kaas! food? FR - Oi! Luv, is there a McDonalds by King's Cross? literature? london vs. paris? FR fuck London (except their lovely record and book shops). I prefer RIOTS to bombs in the tube/doubledeckers.
That's 5-2 for La République. Still: Fuck Patricia Kaas!
