Worth it... June 9, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Worth it for the short story, "The Seven League Boots" by Marcel Ayme which I have been saving up to read, in the English, to my kids for years now.
The rest are ok, with the exception of Robbe-Grillet's "The Beach" which is outstanding.
As a language learning tool it works well, but the selection is self consciously "arty". (I have an ancient Bantam "dual langauge" with old French classics and the stories are riveting even if the langauge is a bit archaic.)
