The other was also by Zola. Maybe someday I'll broaden my French horizons.<br /><br />E.L. Faye - Only read one more chapter, but I'm really enjoying this! My review is scheduled for April 17. Zola's Theresa Raquin was one of my favorites last year and I'm hoping to learn about his other novels during the Classics Circuit tour.JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-5904766093741873982010-03-23T23:37:46.517-04:002010-03-23T23:37:46.517-04:00This book sounds fascinating!

It was an amazing psychological study of guilt! It's one I can heartily recommend, and much shorter than this one.<br /><br />Hannah Stoneham - It seems my reading is taking a Parisian turn with My Life in France, this one, and A Moveable Feast coming up.<br /><br />Nan - I've only read 85 pages so far, but really like it! Haven't seen anything else like it.<br /><br />Carolsnotebook - This looks at the rise of the department store and how it pushes out the smaller merchants... putting faces on all sides of the issue.<br /><br />Everybookandcranny - I'm a new Zola fan and am not familiar with the book your husband suggested, but I will look it up.<br /><br />Darlene - So far it's very good, but I've only read 85 pages.<br /><br />Staci - I like Zola and have read some favorable reviews of this one. We'll see how it goes!<br /><br />Nymeth - I'm guessing Zola will get a few more readers by the time the Classics Circuit is finished. Theresa Raquin was one of my favorites last year!<br /><br />Lori - I'm really enjoying it so far!JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-87849295614253890192010-03-23T17:07:50.384-04:002010-03-23T17:07:50.384-04:00Sandy - What's not to love?

The review for this one is scheduled for April 17.<br /><br />Beth F - I loved Therese Raquin when I read it last year and am sure the Classics Circuit posts will help me choose my next Zola.<br /><br />Kaye - Yes, finally some grass. Who care that it's still brown, lol! The ice is breaking up now, too, and should be gone within the week.<br /><br />Gautami - Thanks!<br /><br />Andrea - So far I really like it.<br /><br />Laurel-Rain Snow - I really like this, and I think the translation is excellent!JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-26495488138281766912010-03-23T16:40:44.226-04:002010-03-23T16:40:44.226-04:00I like that a lot!
