  Papa et Piaf — Authority: 113
  A friend recently sent me this link about babies crying “in” a language . “Does Piaf scream in a French accent for you and an English accent for her mother?” she asked. The honest answer is that, when she was crying in the sense that this article means, I didn’t notice (probably because I hadn’t read the ...

• Autumn Leaves

  
  Versailles and more — Authority: 115
  This is it: the first part of fall is over already. The trees on the banks of the Seine are still russet and gold, a last flamboyant display of color before the bareness of winter. So to illustrate the turn of the season I chose this painting by John Everett Millais, as apt an illustration of autumn as his Blind ...

• Je navigue, tu navigues, elle navigue …

  
  Papa et Piaf — Authority: 113
  You’ve waited so patiently for a clip, I feel I owe you something really special. This is one of Piaf’s favourite songs at bed time – indeed, she has recently added “matelot” to her active vocabulary, a word she certainly doesn’t hear elsewhere. However, as I still have some sort of life, I settle for ...

  Papa et Piaf — Authority: 113
  “Stop pushing me!” Like a miniature Rambo, my daughter has developed language to let potential aggressors know that she is not to be messed with. The only problem is that no one has even touched her. She has several of these little gems, tailor-made to convince a stranger that the right and Christian thing to do ...

  Papa et Piaf — Authority: 113
  Well, it’s been a while, hasn’t it? Sorry about that. The prosaic truth is that I’ve been busy – but also that (and this will shock everyone except you) the more interesting stuff Piaf does, the more time I spend dealing with the fall-out from said interesting stuff, and the less time I have to write about ...

  Papa et Piaf — Authority: 113
  I do not really believe in fate.  Nevertheless, in future, I intend to steer clear of provocative questions such as, “what’s the worst that can happen?” The weekend, you see, was an absolute nightmare. The big things fell into place – we caught the train with no problem, for example – but, as regards ...

  By the time you read this I will probably be underwater. Hopefully eating a croissant. The tax that will take us to the train that will take us away under the sea and off to Lille is due in five and a half hours. If I didn’t have to book some last-minute travel insurance (lost E111- silly papa) I would not even be ...

• The cabbie who wept for Edith Piaf

  
  Listening Room Blog — Authority: 124
  Some 17 years ago I had a memorable cab ride in New York city. I was heading from Grand Central down to the lower East Side, where I had a date with an ex. I was running late, and the cabbie was one of those hard-edged ones. The guy seemed to hate his life, his job and, by extension, the guy in the back of the taxi. ...
