They do, but the price seems to be even steeper than that. Legolas Send a noteboard - 12/01/2010 11:37:45 PM
I searched for la Pléiade but the interface was confusing at the few sites that advertised them. Would I pay $80-$120 for a good book by a great author? Yes. But how do I search for them? It doesn't look like Amazon carries them.


130 euro plus shipping costs means it'll be probably over 200 USD.

Well, if Tim can post his planned reads for 2010, so can I. Tom - 11/01/2010 02:34:47 AM 904 Views
I doubt it quite the same ways that book seems to have for you Larry - 11/01/2010 03:43:37 AM 831 Views
"Invitation to a Beheading" is the translated title *NM* Tom - 11/01/2010 03:55:06 AM 297 Views
Ah, I was wondering if it might be that one (obviously, I know very little Russian) Larry - 11/01/2010 04:04:14 AM 765 Views
I liked 1776. Darth_Katie - 11/01/2010 04:00:03 AM 834 Views
John Adams sounded good, but I've vowed to limit book-buying. Tom - 11/01/2010 01:41:50 PM 799 Views
Re: I liked 1776 and try The Johnstown Flood. One of my best reads for last year *NM* Nolan - 11/01/2010 03:33:24 PM 380 Views
Cool, I'll put it on the list. *NM* Darth_Katie - 11/01/2010 05:23:21 PM 378 Views
The Plague might disappoint you. jh - 11/01/2010 06:31:54 AM 750 Views
I was suspecting that: I studied some other Camus in school, but not that one. Tim - 11/01/2010 09:02:04 AM 771 Views
Well, then I'd have to buy it in French, and that gets me back to my old problem: Tom - 11/01/2010 01:42:35 PM 674 Views
Y'a pas de bonnes bibliothèques avec une section "Langues Étrangères" à New York? Tim - 11/01/2010 02:11:33 PM 727 Views
I'm too lazy to respond in French. Tom - 11/01/2010 02:37:41 PM 787 Views
Looks like you win. Can't find it on fnac.com either. Tim - 11/01/2010 02:55:10 PM 833 Views
I just can't justify buying a book I would want to keep in paperback. Tom - 11/01/2010 03:53:06 PM 773 Views
I would have thought "it's not available in hardback" was a good justification... *NM* Tim - 11/01/2010 03:55:56 PM 342 Views
Not for a book that I am sure is in hardcover somewhere... Tom - 11/01/2010 03:59:08 PM 743 Views
Are you sure it's in hardcover somewhere? *NM* Tim - 11/01/2010 04:00:54 PM 356 Views
It's a classic. How could it not be? Tom - 11/01/2010 04:03:07 PM 700 Views
Why would one do a new edition of a book that old - and that short - in hardcover? Legolas - 11/01/2010 05:00:04 PM 778 Views
Because it's a classic. Tom - 11/01/2010 05:06:51 PM 696 Views
I see. Legolas - 11/01/2010 05:46:06 PM 842 Views

Re: Can you let me know what you think of 1776? snoopcester - 11/01/2010 11:29:22 AM 703 Views
I had skimmed a part of it previously Tom - 11/01/2010 01:45:20 PM 709 Views
Oh, and regarding another of your points Tom - 11/01/2010 02:49:26 PM 885 Views
That's some pretty assonance . Tim - 11/01/2010 02:56:20 PM 849 Views
It's pretty straightforward Tom - 11/01/2010 03:57:41 PM 695 Views
Re: Well, if Tim can post his planned reads for 2010, so can I. snoopcester - 11/01/2010 11:32:53 AM 793 Views
I have a lot more on my "to read one day" list, but I don't want to read them all in one year. Tom - 11/01/2010 01:46:59 PM 742 Views
I assumed you would have... I just didn't have anything more interesting to say *NM* snoopcester - 11/01/2010 02:59:30 PM 357 Views
Try "Did you know sheep have no gag reflex?" next time. Tom - 11/01/2010 04:01:54 PM 710 Views
On the Road is a classic. everynametaken - 12/01/2010 04:08:11 AM 651 Views

There is a more important question to ask Amys - 14/01/2010 08:04:51 AM 973 Views
