    Lord Hornblower, by CS Forester... I believe it's an english classic, but as a french, I just discovered Hornblower a couple of months ago... I love these books and I'm currently reading all of them... (seing the tyranny of Bonaparte from the point of view of a Royal Navy officer of this time, spending his time to sink french ships is part of the fun, and the high adventure and ingenuity of the captain makes the rest).

    Welcome to our French minority...people will tell you I am anti-French because I do not respect Chirac.

    I don't respect Chirac, 'tis true, but I sincerely welcome our French contingent; don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

    The last book I have to write an essay about for my English course. Then I can get back to reading "normal" books.

    Because if it is, it probably runs like you - very homosexually.

    Thanks, J2K4... As for Chirac, I'm not much of a fan of our ex-president myself ... Oops sorry, not yet ex-president: I'm two weeks in advance to say that...
