{"product_id":"civilisation-franaise-9781956474503","title":"Civilisation Fran?aise","description":"When recent college graduate Lily Owens enrolls in the Civilisation Fran?aise course at the Sorbonne in 1982, she hopes to put a difficult childhood behind her and to find direction for her future. She moves into a mansion on the place des Vosges where her job is to help the housekeeper, Germaine, care for the elderly, half-blind Amenia Quinon, another ex-pat American. The three women live alone in this old house of silence and secrets, mostly revolving in their own worlds. When Lily extends an invitation to a friend, all of their lives are upended. Moving, sometimes humorous and always engrossing, Civilisation Fran?aise is a powerful story about facing our past, discovering a future, and the meaning of home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Heliotrope Books LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781956474503\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/10\/2024\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Mary Fleming","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44413592273077,"sku":"9781956474503","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_48395ab5-45c2-46ee-a4ca-c7ebaab30384.jpg?v=1720537835","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/civilisation-franaise-9781956474503","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
