And I discovered the book was available in French at the library of the college of my town! If you have a public library card, you can also check out books there, and it's just 10 minutes on foot from home, so I went right away. Very powerful poetryEmma at Words And Peace / France Book Tourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09426924864218623976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-68571507028437204702019-02-18T10:52:56.841-08:002019-02-18T10:52:56.841-08:00I just learned about the movie the other day from ...I just learned about the movie the other day from a Goodreads friend.

Somehow it was not depressing though it dealt with a fictionalized account of her first suicide attempt.

I know the basic rudimentary details of her life and tragic death. I like the approach of digging into her life and work. <br /><br />Though I prefer not to go looking for “help” when I am reading, when I delve into poetry as difficult as this sounds, I sometimes go to Google for a bit of help. <br />Brian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.com
