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 1046 Views
I doubt it quite the same ways that book seems to have for you Larry - 11/01/2010 03:43:37 AM 974 Views
"Invitation to a Beheading" is the translated title *NM* Tom - 11/01/2010 03:55:06 AM 363 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 905 Views
I liked 1776. Darth_Katie - 11/01/2010 04:00:03 AM 975 Views
John Adams sounded good, but I've vowed to limit book-buying. Tom - 11/01/2010 01:41:50 PM 951 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 457 Views
Cool, I'll put it on the list. *NM* Darth_Katie - 11/01/2010 05:23:21 PM 461 Views
The Plague might disappoint you. jh - 11/01/2010 06:31:54 AM 893 Views
I was suspecting that: I studied some other Camus in school, but not that one. Tim - 11/01/2010 09:02:04 AM 922 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 819 Views
Y'a pas de bonnes bibliothèques avec une section "Langues Étrangères" à New York? Tim - 11/01/2010 02:11:33 PM 884 Views
I'm too lazy to respond in French. Tom - 11/01/2010 02:37:41 PM 935 Views
Looks like you win. Can't find it on fnac.com either. Tim - 11/01/2010 02:55:10 PM 970 Views
I just can't justify buying a book I would want to keep in paperback. Tom - 11/01/2010 03:53:06 PM 919 Views
I would have thought "it's not available in hardback" was a good justification... *NM* Tim - 11/01/2010 03:55:56 PM 410 Views
Not for a book that I am sure is in hardcover somewhere... Tom - 11/01/2010 03:59:08 PM 899 Views
Are you sure it's in hardcover somewhere? *NM* Tim - 11/01/2010 04:00:54 PM 423 Views
It's a classic. How could it not be? Tom - 11/01/2010 04:03:07 PM 834 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 914 Views
Because it's a classic. Tom - 11/01/2010 05:06:51 PM 836 Views
I see. Legolas - 11/01/2010 05:46:06 PM 990 Views

Re: Can you let me know what you think of 1776? snoopcester - 11/01/2010 11:29:22 AM 853 Views
I had skimmed a part of it previously Tom - 11/01/2010 01:45:20 PM 875 Views
Oh, and regarding another of your points Tom - 11/01/2010 02:49:26 PM 1051 Views
That's some pretty assonance . Tim - 11/01/2010 02:56:20 PM 986 Views
It's pretty straightforward Tom - 11/01/2010 03:57:41 PM 834 Views
Re: Well, if Tim can post his planned reads for 2010, so can I. snoopcester - 11/01/2010 11:32:53 AM 931 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 880 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 426 Views
Try "Did you know sheep have no gag reflex?" next time. Tom - 11/01/2010 04:01:54 PM 848 Views
