I need to start reading in French again!

[quote user="odile"]if you want to read about 'my' area pre your visit here next Spring - read Gide's 'La symphonie Pastorale' (about a vicar who falls in love with an adopted orphan).

Odile, I have made a note of the book.  The title alone would attract me as I am a music lover.

I loved the Haute Savoie, BTW.

Did you watch le Tour on the TV today?  I think they were just north of where I was.  Didn't see it all as I was in the middle of 2 or 3 long phone calls but I think they mentioned the petit col de St Bernard; does that ring a bell?

Sorry, not talking about books now.  But, really, I am glad to be recommended a book about your area, Odile.  I only seemed to have read books based in Paris or the Provence so far.

If only the French (mine, alas) would get a bit better quicker so that I don't have to use the dictionary so much, I'd read a lot more!!!!![:(]
