Yes of course I read in French and I do have paper books in French. The thing is the ebook revolution has not yet hit the French speaking world and while a few French ebooks can be found, there are nowhere as many available as can be found in English.
By the way I happen to speak Spanish too so would you happen to know where I could find ebooks by Gabriel García Márquez ?
Especially Cien años de soledad.
Cheers dude

I've also mostly switched to English for the internet, but I still want and read books in other languages (and I've uploaded a few here). I wouldn't read a book originally written in a language I can read in an English translation (except, maybe, " The Forging of a Rebel", which was written in Spanish, but first published as an English translation; by the time it was published in Spanish, the original manuscript was lost, and it had to be back-translated to Spanish). |
