FRN 412 Le Roman au 21e siècle - Automne 2006

What Past Participants Think:

Of all the French 412 courses that I have taken, that one on the 21st century novel was my favorite. I really enjoyed all of the books and enjoyed the conversation and discussion that came about in class in response to our readings even though this course is a lot of work. I think one of the best parts about the course was that the novels were new, recent, edgy, and talked about current events/problems that we are facing. Kelly McBrien.

I thought that the discussion of these always unique, sometimes outrageous, hot off the press contemporary French novels was lively and fun as well as educational. I enjoyed the course very much. I hope it is offerred again soon
. Bruce Fickett.

I thoroughly enjoyed FRN 412 at URI. This course is no longer at the level of learning French, but rather enjoying it. We read contemporary French novels that were as racy and exotic as any of us could have hoped for. The reading material was so different from any mundane required literature that I have ever read. The level of work for the course is a bit demanding, but the reward is well worth the effort. Jeff Borden.
