The apparently motiveless attempted murder of a tramp is the focus of the relentless investigation by the resourceful psychologist of crime, Inspector Maigret. Jean Cadoret inherits an old farmhouse and decides to live in the country with his wife, Aimée, who is an opera singer, and their daughter, Manon. The village people see them as outsiders, and the family must work to gain their acceptance. Maigret et le fantôme (Simenon) This reader is the sequel to Jean de Florette. Together they form the famous work L’eau de collines. Under suspicious circumstances, a police inspector is gravely wounded returning home from a visit to a young woman late one night. In true Simenon style, the story ends with an unexpected solution. Le grand Meaulnes (Alain-Fournier) This carefully adapted version of one of the great European novels of the century reflects the author’s young life and experiences at a country boarding school.

Julien Sorel, the cold and calculating hero, succumbs to his violent, passionate nature and risks all he has gained in the second half of this famous novel. La vie devant soi (Gary) Doctor Katz says to Momo that he should not cry because he has all his life ahead of him.

Le père Goriot (Balzac) The poverty of life in a seedy boardinghouse in the Latin Quarter of Paris is the setting for this classic tale. Two sisters renounce their moneyless father in their search for riches. The setting of this novel, France from 1941 to 1945, serves as an exciting backdrop for the escapades of the young heroine, Lea, as she travels between occupied and free France on her blue bicycle. L’écume des jours (Vian) Le mur (Sartre) Mon oncle Jules (Maupassant) Three men sentenced to death by General Franco’s Falange during the Spanish Civil War await execution in their cell. Sartre gives vivid impressions of their thoughts, fears, and old memories during their last night in prison. The famous novelist describes in five stories the everyday activities of ordinary people who are incapable of dealing with life. In one of the best-known books by Boris Vian, the crazy love between Colin and Chloé represents l’écume that floats on the surface of an indifferent and selfish society. Le château de ma mère (Pagnol) Pagnol reveals his childhood memories with simplicity and clarity of style. E-mail: [email protected] • Web site—buy online: www.emcp.com 49
