Literary Bites with Oscar et la dame rose (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bienvenue à Literary BitesOscar et la dame rose can be a bit deceptive at first. It’s a very short book, written in very simple language, it can be read in an afternoon but can stay with you for long.Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt takes a difficult subject, a child confronting illness and death, but doesn’t write about it a solemn or heavy way, as we could expect.

À méditer cette semaine« Je suis perdu, vois-tu, je suis noyé, inondé d’amour ; je ne sais plus si je vis, si je mange, si je respire, si je parle ; je sais que je t’aime. » – Alfred de Musset “I’m lost, you see; I’m drowning, overwhelmed by love; I no longer know whether I’m alive, whether I’m eating, whether I’m breathing, whether I’m speaking; I know that I love you.”<a class="image-link image2" href
Literary Bites with Le Père Goriot (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bienvenue à Literary BitesI’ve wanted to feature Balzac for a long time, and somehow I always came back to the same novel. Not Illusions perdues or Eugénie Grandet. Not one of the great Paris novels full of bankers, journalists, aristocrats and schemers.Le Père Goriot.Perhaps because, behind all the ambition and social climbing, it’s a remarkably simple story. A father loves his daughters. He gives them everything he has. They ask for more. He gives that too. And then comes this scene.Père Gorio
