Merde!: The Real French You Were Never Taught at School by Geneviève

This really is 'The French you weren't taught in school'. It's an orderly presented and very seriously written introduction to words like 'merde', 'chier' etc and how they are used in the vernacular.
There are lots of examples of slang, as well as indications of obscenity-levels.
