{"product_id":"2940015973730","title":"Le P\u0026egrave;re Goriot - Father Goriot - Vol 2 (of 2) [French \u0026 English Bilingual Edition] - Paragraph by Paragraph Translation","description":"Le Père Goriot - Father Goriot - Vol 2 (of 2)\u003cbr\u003eby Honoré de Balzac\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLe Père Goriot is set in Paris in 1819. Three principal characters are the elderly Goriot who dotes on her two daughters. The latter, although they married extremely wee, yet still demand more and more of him. The other two principal characters are a criminal called Vautrin, and a naive law student named Eugène de Rastignac. Le Père Goriot is considered by many to be Balzac's most important novel. It marks the first serious use by the author of characters who had appeared in other books, a technique that distinguishes Balzac's fiction (which came back to frequent use recently).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout The Bilingual Edition\u003cbr\u003eProject Bilingual (A division of Wolf Pup Books) is a continuing project making available great original French writers' texts along with their English translation. This edition, which offers after every original language paragraph its translation, makes both grammar and vocabulary checks as painless as possible. Idiomatic forms that could be overlooked can be easily detected.\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, large paragraphs have been broken down to much smaller units so that the check is as effortless as possible. We do hope that by reading French writers that defined the language itself or whose work permeated the French culture, you will be able to get the maximum benefit from this language series. Although this edition is not a replacement for traditional methods of learning language, it is a very powerful tool to speed up the process once you have attained the intermediate level and beyond.\u003cbr\u003eWolf Pup Books\u003cbr\u003eA Bilingual Ebook Publishing Company","brand":"Wolf Pup Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47071115935984,"sku":"2940015973730","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940015973730_p0.jpg?v=1763627078","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015973730","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
