Thank you David. It worked. I now have purchased, downloaded and transferred to my reader copies of Les Fourmis, L'Elegance de l'Herisson, and L'Etranger, courtesy of my address at Les Catalans in Marseille (where Mercedes lived in Le Comte de Monte Cristo).

Another strange little trick I noticed was that although I changed my address to a French one, it wouldn't show me those books in reply to my searches until I switched the language through which I was viewing the Kobo site to French. Fortunately, my French was at least good enough to be able to complete the purchase.

Merci.
