About This Item
London: Penguin, 1999. Trade Paperback. Very Good+. Interior pristine. Spine straight, tight and uncreased. Covers clean. Reading wear to corners and edges. Not from a library. No remainder mark. 214 pages.
Containing eight pieces of contemporary fiction in the original French and in English translation this volume gives a fascinating insight into culture and literature of France and Quebec as well as providing an invaluable educational tool. Including Daniel Boulanger's exploration of revenge and the desire for recognition in "The Hunter's Cafe," to Alain Gerber's brief and poetic "You Never Die," these stories make excellent reading in any language.
