Maybe some existential reading from Sarte or Claudel (L'Anonce fait a Marie--Tidings Made to Mary?) is a good one. La Retour de Martin Guerre is another good one and that one has the benefit of also having a movie made of it. :-) ::evil grin::Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651401312450990123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-79269589444691350632010-04-09T18:16:28.280-05:002010-04-09T18:16:28.280-05:00Oh - I just love this theme idea!

I am hoping that I can get to Paris to the Moon, The Hunchback of Notre Dame (planning on taking it with me as doorstop travel book), and Hemingway's Moveable Feast. I heard a story about that on the book show here this week, there is a new edition from 2009, revised by Hemingway's grandson Sean, and allegedly more the way Hemingway intended. Although he didn't actually intend for it to be published at all. A lot of the French kids books in 1001 seem to be quite difficult to obtain here, I'm hoping to pick up English versions whilst there. I've scheduled Madeline and Babar for us for May in preparation for my trip. I'm not quite sure how the wiki you've set up works, but I'm keen to share your building excitement.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13187730620736345378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-29265910654724247272010-04-04T18:49:03.595-05:002010-04-04T18:49:03.595-05:00Loved Le Miz, but it is a long read!
