French Book Club

This course will be designed for intermediate to advanced language learners. This course will be partially a self-paced multiple-week program. A book will be selected to read and discuss according to a syllabus. I will supply worksheets for self-paced work on vocabulary and comprehension, and these will have deadlines for completion each week to be corrected by me. These will help keep students on track with reading. Then, every other week there will be a live session with the teacher for the discussion of themes and characters and a review of any questions the student may have. One of the books now available for the course is ‘Le Petit Prince’ by Saint- Exupery. This is not a children’s book. It is a very introspective, philosophical story about the most important things in life, with themes of friendship, love, learning and travel. It is an absolute must read for learners of French. Also available are ‘L’etranger’ by Camus, and ‘Le Monde est Mon Language’ by Alain Mabanckou, and ‘Journal d’un ecrivain en pyjama’ by Dany Laferriere. Soon to be available are ‘Short Stories’ by Maupassant, and ‘Huis Clos’ by Sartre.
