Editor Serge from my French publisher Editions çà et là wrote to tell me about
a new review of Mom's Cancer (Le Cancer de Maman) published recently in
Le Monde, France's leading daily national newspaper. The reviewer also commented on Miriam Engelberg's
Cancer Made Me a Shallower Person (which, as I noted earlier, was translated into French as "Cancer Made Me Love TV and Crosswords," entirely appropriately I thought) and a book I don't know by Paco Roca titled
Rides in French (
Arrugas in its original Spanish or
Wrinkles in English) about Alzheimer's disease.
Serge and AltaVista's BabelFish translator both assure me the review is a good one. Serge said Le Monde doesn't usually review graphic novels at all and he seemed happy to be noticed. I am, too. So extra thanks to Le Monde, as well as to Serge for letting me know about it.
