Our biggest coup de đfrom the RentrĂ©e LittĂ©raire!''
Posted by Jennifer Fulton on
  I read an advanced copy of this book over the summer and it was both a blessing and a curse. Early access is a wonderful privelege, but I have been waiting more than 2 months to yell from the treetops READ THIS BOOK!
The fantastic news is that it is finally here!
If you read in French, please donât even think about it. Just get it (and we have several copies in stock right now!)!
This book was my constant companion for two weeks over the summer, and every night I race to bed to return to the company of Otto and Simone. One of the best books Iâve read â a beautiful story of the power of love to awaken our humanity.

Un trĂ©sor que beaucoup dâentre vous passerez toute une vie Ă chercher et nâobtiendrez jamais.Jâai aimĂ©. Et jâai Ă©tĂ© aimĂ©e.

Dans un roman bouleversant qui sâinspire de ce clichĂ© Julie HĂ©raclĂšs retrace la vie de cette femme libre Simone au tempĂ©rament incandescent.
