Je lis La Princesse de Clèves


Je lis La Princesse de Clèves, originally uploaded by Breff.

After French President Sarkozy criticised the French classic La Princesse de Clèves, which is a standard of school and civil service exams, the book has become a surprise hit.

Sales have soared and protesting workers are wearing badges like the one pictured 'I am reading La Princesse de Clèves'.

I look forward to 'I am reading the Mayor of Casterbridge' badges on May Day.
