Ever been asked how much money you make and felt uncomfortable? In this edition of Entre Nous, we take a look at salary transparency.

Gisèle Pelicot has become a household name since the world learned of the unimaginable ordeal she suffered at the hands of her husband.

It's a new chapter in the neighbourhood's literary tradition, inspired by a bygone era. In Entre Nous, Angela Diffley speaks to Gaëlle Le Gall Nicolas, marketing director of Les Deux Magots.

In this edition of Entre Nous we dive into the "Affaire Patrick Bruel", as it is being called here in France.

Finally, we look at how France's statute of limitations laws are being tested here.
