recommend me a good french book
i’m realising how poor my french is now, having not taken any classes in it since winter 2000 … geez … and having little practise since. i’m kind of bored, and since i don’t talk to my pals in french all that much, i might as well cure that boredom and rusty french with a good book. my favourite is L’Amour Mallarmé by Guy Moreau. the thing is, i need like a “roman jeunesse” because my french isn’t quite good enough for a real adult book. i’ve tried. vocabulary is too slim.
a friend’s recommendations:
le petit sauvage – alexandre jardin
danielle steel’s novels in french
marie laberge
christyne roy
perhaps even some articles on subjects i like (see “themes” list at right). i had a fairly easy time reading a short bit about an industrial design piece that found itself in my coursepack. any good design sites in french one can recommend?
i’m lazy, so shoot me
