Well, then there's two. *NM* Tom Send a noteboard - 13/09/2012 02:10:53 PM
I just am uncertain when I plan on reading it in French (I read it in translation about 15 years ago and liked it slightly less than Le Rouge et le Noir, but then again, Julien Sorel's character interested me then).
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

Hm. I might give that a try, then, despite being even less of a fan of Le Rouge et le Noir than you. *NM* Legolas - 12/09/2012 09:56:50 PM 339 Views
Sounds like you'd be the only one. This review went over like a fart in church. *NM* Tom - 12/09/2012 11:20:23 PM 372 Views

Well, not many here read French lit, it seems Larry - 13/09/2012 02:19:23 PM 729 Views
We could certainly do some interesting book clubs on French lit, if we had enough participants. Legolas - 13/09/2012 06:49:34 PM 802 Views
Well, I thought it had largely died as a viable model back in 2004-2005 Larry - 14/09/2012 10:09:44 PM 840 Views
Yeah, my Princess de Clèves review didn't have much success either. *NM* Legolas - 13/09/2012 06:48:07 PM 345 Views
I didn't notice that one. Did you post it last week or the week before? Tom - 13/09/2012 07:42:11 PM 816 Views
Two weeks ago, yeah. Legolas - 13/09/2012 08:20:45 PM 834 Views
It sounds like an interesting but somewhat dry novel. Tom - 14/09/2012 02:48:10 PM 717 Views
I dare say you'd be shouting at her to give in already before too long, yes. Legolas - 14/09/2012 07:33:09 PM 829 Views
I think you now have to read/review Samuel Richardson's Pamela Larry - 14/09/2012 10:08:14 PM 900 Views
Samuel Richardson is on my list, aye - but Pamela or Clarissa? *NM* Legolas - 14/09/2012 11:01:26 PM 347 Views
Hey, I read the review. nossy - 15/09/2012 12:57:45 AM 829 Views
Thank you for you perspective! *NM* kHz1000 - 16/09/2012 10:50:42 AM 442 Views
