La chasse-galerie By Honoré Beaugrand

Kindle La chasse-galerie

I figured I d read a classic from my own place It was an enjoyable short read and it sounds like a folk tale However there s not much substance to it and it actually stops right at the moment it started to get interesting I don t really understand why this became so well known lol Anyway the antiquated expression were good fun Honor Beaugrand Six folktales from Qu bec and I couldn t be happier I initially became curious in these stories after introducing qu b cois culture to my French I class and I was hoping to find something that would be an easy read for beginning students of French I ve always enjoyed folktales so thought this would be appropriate Unfortunately the language is a little complex that I d like for beginning students so I ll likely have to find ways to simplify the stories myself but at least I have a small collection of folktales that I can use in class I enjoyed la chasse galerie of course but I expected it to be scarierMacloune made me really sadAnd le fant me de l avare was a very lovely story that s a nice allegory of redemption.
