Lettres de Mon Moulin (Letters From My Mill) - Vol 1 (of 2)
by Alphonse Daudet
Letters from My Mill (Lettres de Mon Moulin) is a collection of short stories that are mostly set in Provence or neighboring territories, and they are rich in local color and charm. They also feature fascinating descriptions of the professions of the day.
Alphonse Daudet (13 May 1840 – 16 December 1897) was a French novelist. His humoristic Lettres de Mon Moulin (Letters from my Windmill) appeared at the Figaro as a series in 1866, where Daudet himself held a position from 1860 to 1865. His style can be described as naturalistic, but he invoked a sense of excitement and well-being, as opposed to the harsher sides of life.
About The Bilingual Edition
Project Bilingual (A division of Wolf Pup Books) is a continuing project making available great original French writers' texts along with their English translation. This edition, which offers after every original language paragraph its translation, makes both grammar and vocabulary checks as painless as possible. Idiomatic forms that could be overlooked can be easily detected.
Furthermore, large paragraphs have been broken down to much smaller units so that the check is as effortless as possible. We do hope that by reading French writers that defined the language itself or whose work permeated the French culture, you will be able to get the maximum benefit from this language series. Although this edition is not a replacement for traditional methods of learning language, it is a very powerful tool to speed up the process once you have attained the intermediate level and beyond.
