Au Revoir Les Enfants (French Edition)
Louis Malle
Editions Gallimard, 1998
A Screenplay for Students of French
I'm a French teacher in a college prep high school. This book is nothing more than the screenplay for the movie of the same name. It doesn't pretend to be anything else, so if all you want to do is enjoy the movie there's no reason to read the book. But for students of ...

Harry Potter Et La Coupe De Feu / Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Folio junior) (French Edition)
J. K. Rowling
Editions Gallimard, 2002
Perfect for the Frech student or speaker.
Reading this book wasn't just fun, but it really helped me in my French. I learned more in reading it than I have in all of my classes combined. There are some little changes in it, but that is because of the language difference and my over-reading the English version ...

Les Bienveillantes (French Edition)
Jonathan Littell
Editions Gallimard, 2006
Dark, perverse, bloody and compulsive reading
I read this book about a year ago and it still has me obsessed. I keep checking to see when the english translation will appear. Apparently a translator has been chosen (according to a website I saw). It is not easy to read - about 900 pages with few breaks - and the ...

La Nausee (Folio) (French Edition)
Jean-Paul Sartre
Editions Gallimard, 2002
Quite the Angelic Novel!
This book, La Nausee, was certainly a gift from heaven. As I read it in front of the fire, over the shoulder of a gorgeous male, with a pathetic man at the window, I was struck by the poetry of the whole thing. La Nausee speaks about scruples, existentialism, and ...

LA Condition Humaine (Collection Folio)
Andre Malraux
Editions Gallimard, 1999
This book is a must and a classic !!
This is a reference among Malraux's writings, because it describes perfectly his own obsessions. Malraux has traveled a lot, and has experienced a lot of different concepts, and a lot of different situations. He started by exporting stolen antiques in Thailand, and ...

Le Petit Prince (French Edition)
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Editions Gallimard, 2000
A Favorite!!
It was worth taking French all through high school just to be able to read "The Little Prince" in its original language. I love this charming story and never tire of it, no matter how many times I read it. My original copy became dog-eared long ago, so I ordered a ...

I purchased this book along with all the other Potter books in French as part of my attempt to learn French some 40 years after high school. I had read the English and Spanish versions previously and found this and the other French volumes to be delighful although it ...
