Just uploaded on FeedBooks (my first upload ever
) this excellent novel about the French Revolution & Thermidor, that existed in English ("The Gods are athirst") but not in French...
Milan Kundera, in his last book recently published here says a lot of --deserved IMHO-- good about Anatole France, and particularly about this book.
Hard work as the OCR was disastrous : the original edition they chose ("collection Pourpre", one of the first "pocket format" collection in France in the '50s) used fonts with ligatures, thus a recognition score of 98%... the word "section" was sytematically recognized as "secdon" or "liste" as "lifte" because of the ligature... A certain number of hours poring over the text (and I'm sure it's not perfect yet)...
