New French Book Club Oct/Nov 2024


French Book Club

Hope you can come join our small group (5 people max for a cosy and fruitful experience) on this new online French Book Club, which will start on Tuesday October 22nd and will go on for 4 consecutive Tuesdays :


October 22nd

October 29th

November 5th

November 12th


As always we will meet at 6pm French time, for 1.5 hours, on Zoom. The class will be recorded so you can watch it again later as many times as you'd like. When I say "you" I mean the participants, it obviously won't be shared with anyone anywhere else.


We will be reading Oscar et la dame rose, un livre d'Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt, short and simple, yet deep and profound, that will trigger so many beautiful thoughts and heart warming conversations. Of course I will also send you your weekly homework to help you prepare (and make sure you work hard) for each meeting.



Let me share with you here what it says on the back cover of the book


"Oscar a dix ans et vit désormais à l'hôpital. Même si personne n'ose le lui dire, il sait qu'il va mourir. Parmi les dames en blouse rose qui viennent passer du temps avec les enfants malades, il en est une qui lui propose, pour qu'il se sente moins seul, d'écrire à Dieu. Ces lettres décrivent douze jours dans l'existence d'Oscar, des jours cocasses et poétiques, pleins de personnages drôles et émouvants. Douze jours qui seront peut-être les derniers. Mais grâce à Mamie-Rose qui noue avec Oscar un lien très fort, ils deviendront légende."
