The Elegant Life of the Parisian High Society in the early 19th century by Anne Martin-Fugier The Elegant Life, or the Rise of the Parisian Elite. 1815-1848 by Anne Martin-Fugier (1990). Original French title : La vie élégante. Ou la formation du Tout-Paris, 1815-1848. This essay about the Parisian Elite between the fall of Napoléon (1815) and the Second Republic (1848) had been sitting on my shelf for a few years before my Tame the TBR project propelled it on the 2026 reading list.

Heaven Has No Favorites by Erich Maria Remarque – my second read for the #1961Club Heaven Has No Favorites by Erich Maria Remarque (1961) French title: Le ciel n’a pas de préférés. Translated by Dominique Auclères. Heaven Has No Favorites by Erich Maria Remarque is my second read for Karen and Simon’s #1961Club. It seems to be OOP in French, I have a used copy published in 1964 by the Cercle du Bibliophile. Maybe we should mourn these mainstream publishers that worked as clubs and sent a book per quarter to a wide range of readers all over the country.

Grasset : après le limogeage d’Olivier Nora, la prestigieuse maison d’édition confrontée à l’hémorragie de ses auteurs Dans une lettre publiée jeudi à minuit, 115 écrivains, dont Virginie Despentes, Sorj Chalandon ou Bernard-Henri Lévy, ont annoncé leur départ de la maison d’Hachette Livre, dénonçant « une atteinte inacceptable à l’indépendance éditoriale et la liberté de création ». Refusant les méthodes de Vincent Bolloré, ils envisagent aussi une « class action » pour récupérer leurs droits.

Voices in the Evening by Natalia Ginzburg. #1961Club Voices in the Evening by Natalia Ginzburg. (1961) French title : Les voix du soir. Translated by Nathalie Bauer. The book blogging community pointed Natalia Ginzburg to me. She’s an Italian writer I’d never heard of but is actually published in France by the indie publishing house Liana Levi. Voices in the Evening is set in a village in the Turino region in the 1940s.

"Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces." 1/2
