More about the book
Edition en Anglais. To describe a town, one must not only show its assets and distinctive features but also the character of its inhabitants and their failings. It is the same for a town as it is for a person : one must tolerate its flaws or mistakes, in order to have a mature and broad- minded understanding. Clichés that come to mind when we think of Lyon's inhabitants are their notorious taste for secrecy : Félix Benoît defines Lyon as "a town where people laugh litre they make love : in private", and their desire for recognition which, at one time, fuelled the frustration of not being the capital the of the country.
