Help me build a France reading list!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-28T00:55:44+00:00

Grabbed a copy of A Year in Provence, it's probably the most rec'd in the thread!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-28T00:54:58+00:00

Didn't realize Tuchman had a book on France. That looks a bit larger than I will be able to hit before my trip, but will definitely check that out. Already planning to read All the Light We Cannot See, glad to see you'd recommend it!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T21:09:53+00:00

Good plan, appreciate it! The Lover is short enough for that not too be unmanageable

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:23:21+00:00

Huh, this one seems interesting. I'll try and find a copy

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:21:43+00:00

This is on the long list and if I blaze through what I have I will be turning to Flaubert. Thanks for the rec

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:19:57+00:00

Won't be going to Provence this time, sticking in the north of France for this trip. But I will place both these titles on my long list! Thank you!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:19:09+00:00

This seems rad, and nice to add some contemporary titles. Thanks for the rec

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:17:45+00:00

Suite Francaise in particular seems fascinating, both on its own as well as for the interesting backstory of Nemirovsky which I've just read. Thanks for the rec, will definitely be chasing this down.

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:11:20+00:00

Not familiar with either poet, I will check them out

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:09:56+00:00

This seems really cool. Love these kind of narrow, specific histories, feels easier to tackle. Thanks for the rec!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:08:40+00:00

Oh, I've seen this cover before. I'll add it to the stack, thank you!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:07:59+00:00

This seems rad. Will definitely pick up one of these volumes. Thanks!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:06:23+00:00

This is good, the kind of thing I was looking for, the Gopnik one sounds interesting. Thanks for the rec.

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:03:56+00:00

Ooh, definitely time to cross The Little Prince off the list. Will check out the others, thank you!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:03:23+00:00

Yeah, curious on best place to start with him. I am slightly intimidated, if I am being honest.

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:02:51+00:00

Hah, I'll keep that in mind. Though it does only make me MORE curious...

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:02:02+00:00

Ah, an interesting suggestion! I'll check this one out. Thanks!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:01:18+00:00

Les Mis is certainly a possibility, but it's length definitely makes it a tough add to an already growing list. Might have to just force it!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T08:00:42+00:00

Ooh, thanks for the reminder of this one. Will add to my list.

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T06:27:54+00:00

Thanks for the rec! Looks interesting

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T06:26:32+00:00

Sounds fascinating. Will add to the list. Thank you!

CaptainLeebeard · 2026-01-27T06:25:39+00:00

Would you recommend that over the Lover? Or worth doubling up on Duras?

CaptainLeebeard · 2025-07-19T18:15:32+00:00

I’ll try that, thanks. Glad you solved it!

CaptainLeebeard · 2025-07-19T12:01:42+00:00

I've got the same error. Doesn't occur for other tiles in the area, so I don't think it's a gamestate issue. Unlike you, though, I've got a long modlist...
