Une Semaine à Paris - A Traveler's Guide with a Novel Twist
An Intermediate Level Novel and Paris Guide
This easily accessible bilingual novel/ Paris guide tells the story of a young couple preparing a trip to Paris, and spending a week over there.
In the story part of the book, you'll find dialogues that are lively, up to date, realistic, and adapted to your level: the dialogues cover subjects like making a hotel reservation, what to pack, asking for directions, ordering at a restaurant, buying food and souvenirs at markets, and many more real life situations.
The travel inserts (written with a professional Paris guide) will let you in on secrets only Parisians know; the best places to shop, little known museums, best Paris markets, how to choose a restaurant etc...
The whole story is translated into English, and the French text is recorded at a fairly slow speed. You will then be able to compare your pronunciation with that of a native Parisian speaker, and learn the true meaning of speaking Parisian.
