Re: French Literature
I haven't read many French authors. A handful of French Canadians for school I guess. Camus I found horrible, just a poor understanding of the psyche. I've only read one Houellebecq, The Elementary Particles, and I enjoyed it. If I'm craving misanthropy he'd be my author of choice. And occasionally that is something I crave. Of course there are a pile of French books on the list of to read but what I would really like to do is learn French and read them untranslated. I have a bit of French but not enough to get by yet. One day.
