mikeweil Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 When buying through Amazon France, Jussieu seems to have the lowest prices - maybe they got some stock to sell at bargain price? Quote
brownie Posted September 29, 2006 Author Report Posted September 29, 2006 (edited) a lightweight affair inspired by writings of Paul Auster. can/there/be/ANY/other/kind/inspired/by/Paul? ive/heard/Auster/translates/to/French/well/by/way/of/explaining/his/appeal/there... (tho/he/is/fluent/in/French/thats/NOT/at/all/evident/in/his/writing.) i/happen/to/think/almost/ALL/Auster/is/lightweight. (his/poetry/is/execrable...some/novels/OK...light.) new/keyboard/today! merci, clementine/redacteur Monsieur le redacteur, I refrained consciously from using the word lightweight to describe Paul Auster. The two go together. Auster's popularity in France eludes me! His novels might be a choice read while taking the sun at the beach and may explain his fame here. I usually do my best to avoid this non-activity And yes pls I do hope you get a new keyboard On the subject of jazz and non-lightweight litterature, did you ever see a copy of Jazzuela which came out a couple of years ago? It has the jazz content of Cortazar 's 'Marelle' and features an excellent CD with most of the tracks mentioned in the novel. It's in French. If you don't have it and can read the native language, let me know and I'll do my best to get a copy for you. A very nice CD book! Jazzuela Edited September 29, 2006 by brownie Quote
