I have some free books to give away today.
24 Hours: Paris
is a different kind of travel guide offering unusual and interesting things to do in Paris for every hour of the day. It is the follow up to 24 Hours: London
and, like its predecessor, tries to pick out some of the hidden gems of the city.
The book is published today and the author, Marsha Moore, will be embarking upon a 24 hour tweetathon, tweeting travel tips all day long.
I have five copies of the book to give away. Simple leave a comment, say something in French, and I will pick five winners at the weekend.
Mon Di est-il déjà le matin? (does Quebecois slang count?)

I don't speak a word of French so haven't got a fucking clue what you are all saying to me. I am sure it is all highly complimentary.

Donnez-moi le livre de Paris. Maintenant!

Je rêve son visage, je decline son corps. Et puis je l'imagine habitant mon decore. J'aurai tant à lui dire, si j'aurai pu parler- comment lui faire lire au font de mes pensées? S'il suffisait qu'on s'aime- s'il suffisait d'aimer, je ferrai de ce monde un rêve- une éternité.- Celine Dion
Ok- I kind of have an advantage since I live just outside Paris but a chance to win Talli's awesome book was too much to pass up! Can't wait to find out what SHE does in my city!;)
Posted by: Creepy Query Girl | May 12, 2010 at 08:23 PM
I was a fan of Google Translator until I input the above Celine Dion from French to English:
"I dream of her face, I decline her body. And then I imagine living in my decore. I will have much to say, if I could speak, how to make him read my thoughts? If we love each other enough, if enough of love I feraglio this world a dream-an eternity." - Celine Dion
Zut alors, tant pis!

I am an Irish writer and I would like to visit Paris avec le Guide book par excellence.
As a lot of Irish writers appear to be buried in Paris, I would like to get there before that happens to me and have a vacance while I can still breathe.
I would like to consume some crepes et vin aussi.
Go on, let me win the book and let there be at least one alive Irish writer in Paris.
Merci beaucoup, (I know I should have paid more attention to the nuns in French class)
