Nicki sent me this picture of Anna Gavalda's charming writing space. We both love her wallpaper and notice the perfume bottle to the left of her computer. So chic and Parisian! (I tried to find the wallpaper source online with no luck.) I'd ordered Someone I Loved after devouring her latest, Hunting and Gathering, last month (my post on it here). Someone I Loved was really good but I was disappointed when I turned the last page--what I thought was only halfway through the book--and found that the rest of the book was the same novel I'd just read, only in French! It didn't say anywhere on the cover that the book came with both the translation and the original French, so I thought I was going to have the pleasure of enjoying a much longer work!
Thanks to a tip from Lux Lotus, I was able to watch the video of Anna Gavalda and singer Rosie Thomas at Barnes & Noble's "Upstairs at the Square." View it here.
