I found a neat bookshop at Lower Main street in Observatory Cape Town when I was there week before last.
They sell muffins and coffee AND they sell some French books, which excited me to no end.
I bought a book by Flaubert because he wrote Madame Bovary so he must be good. I hear of him and Proust being referred to in films and blogs I come across so I reckon either one is worth a try. One day when I speak French I will read it and maybe it'll be my favourite.
I also bought Bleak House by Charles Dickens. I may just be inspired to read it one day, but I'm in no rush. I read the first page though and the guy goes on and on with his description of fog... which I'm not too sure about. I feel like at least trying to read Dickens will make me a better writer though so I will read it one day.
