"Post office manager Philippe longs for a transfer to the sunny, sophisticated south of France. But when his attempt to cheat his way into a transfer backfires, he is sent instead to Nord-Pas de Calais. This northern province is known for its chilly dampness, its drunken, unemployable population, its terrible food and an impenetrable dialect known as Ch'timi. But Philippe soon learns to love these people so much that he must devise a strategy, with the help of the natives, to keep his left-behind wife from discovering his secret."

The trouble is that he is caught red-handed while trying to scam an inspector. Philippe is immediately banished to the distant unheard of town of Bergues, in the Far North of France. Leaving his child and wife behind, the crucified man leaves for his frightening destination, a dreadfully cold place inhabited by hard-drinking, unemployed rednecks, speaking an incomprehensible dialect called Ch'ti. Philippe soon realizes that all these ideas were nothing but prejudices and that Bergues is not synonymous with hell..."--Container."

"Philippe Abdrams ist Leiter einer Postfiliale in der Provence. Um seiner Frau eine Freude zu bereiten, versucht er, mit einer Schummelei eine Versetzung an die Côte d'Azur zu erreichen. Aber der Schwindel fliegt auf. Er wird strafversetzt nach Bergues, ein kleines Dorf im Norden Frankreichs. Aus provenzalischer Sicht ein eisiger Landstrich, dessen Bewohner, ein ungehobelter Menschenschlag, einen unverständlichen Dialekt namens "Ch'timi" sprechen. So zieht Philippe tapfer und alleine in diese trostlose Gegend. Doch dort wird alles ganz anders als erwartet."
