A Very French Christmas: The Greatest French Holiday Stories of All Time by Alphonse Daudet, Guy de Maupassant, Anatole France
dark
sad
slow-paced
2.0
This is too gorgeous a book to receive such a low rating, but I have never read a book of such depressing stories! What we Americans have made happy stories (fairy tales, Christmas stories), the French make BLEAK. I did enjoy the story about the lost little boy, but other than that, this was not a joy to get through.
