    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 ...

    Versailles and moreAuthority Authority: 112
    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 ...

    Papa et PiafAuthority Authority: 112
    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.
