Hi everybody,

I am reading a wonderful book in English, but I want to buy it for myself in French. It is called "Le Scaphandre et le Papillon" by Jean-Dominique Bauby.

Should I try amazon.fr? Are there other online bookstores that someone could recommend?

Thanks.

Martine,

you are extremely nice and I really appreciate your offer. Of course I'll pay for the book.

We need to get the French conversation club going in September! Martine--maybe you can suggest some easy books for us to discuss! Merci!

This is a book I recommend. I don't think it is an easy book, I read it in English and the subject is pretty heavy and sad. The English text was not simple. I don't know if it will be difficult to read in French, I guess so. But I think the book is worth reading and there is a lot to discuss about it.

Martine already recommended one book which is a very good book - "Oscar et la dame rose". The only thing is to start reading and discussing.

This is off subject: I remember a conversation about finding a catering company for our party. I met somebody on the 4th who has a catering business and seemed to be a nice, friendly and trustworthy person. He is a friend of a friend of mine and I have his business card in case we need a caterer.
