2022-23 American Library in Paris Book Group
Contemporary French Fiction
Sundays, 14h00-15h30 (Spaces Open)
We read contemporary French fiction as yet untranslated into English. Once each term we also pick a 20th Century French classic to read. Together our group chooses books from the new French novels which come out in September each year. We decide the titles by a vote each quarter.
We also invite some of the authors when possible, and we regularly organize theatre outings to see new French plays.
Led by Helen Stanton.
