The French hotel had a bidet, which Richard explained to me with the trace of a smirk after he caught me washing my feet in it. I thought, They do understand something the others don’t, the French. They understand the anxiety of the body. At least they admit it exists… The French are connoisseurs of sadness, they know all the kinds. This is why they have bidets.
