## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Touchant, assez difficile pour les anglophones qui apprennent le français.
  

*by G***O on Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2018*

I’m a high intermediate French learner trying to improve my reading ability.  I’m finding it difficult especially the parts by the “concierge”.  May be best for truly advanced learners.  Touching story.  Interestingly enough I’m also reading “Crime et châtiment” (Dostoevsky) in French and I’m finding THAT  easier!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The best novel ever
  

*by N***L on Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2018*

This must be one of the best novels I ever read, alongside "Anna Karenina" and "Belle du Seigneur". L'elegance du Herriossn is elegant, passionate and compassionate.  It is wise and heartwrenching, it makes you laugh out loud and then cry, even if books do not make you cry. The downside is that you don't get to read many such books in a lifetime, even if you are a voracious reader. Read it in French, if you can, but if not order at once "The Elegance of a Hedgehog", you will thank the amazing writer: Muriel Barbery.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Originality and a Novel Style.
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2013*

This is an English review of a book in French. (There is an English translation (The Elegance of the Hedgehog). (Also a movie in Netflix)Written by a Philo Prof. In France they don't separate philosophy and literature. They are one,  whereas as we make philosophy a technical discipline like math. So this interesting blend of philosophy and human characters is very interesting. The French are good at literature we must say.The two intertwining characters are a young  upper class girl and the janitor of the upscale building she lives in. The little girl is super smart and quickly sees through the superficialities of her mother and father and discovers the autodidact old lady janitor who is intelligent and perceptive.The girl had planned to kill herself as life was so meaningless. But through her interaction with the janitor she discovers reasons to live. "Si la vie vaut la peine d'être vécu." Is life worth living? The book explores this primal philosophic question not in a cold philosophic way as the English would have it but in a humanized philosophy.
