SUMMARY:Translating Némirovsky with Sandra Smith
DESCRIPTION:Register here! \nTuesday | October 11 | 4- 5 pm PST \nFederation of Alliances Françaises USA\nIn English \nJoin us for a conversation with Sandra Smith\, award-winning translator of French literature\, as she discusses the artistry and challenges involved in translating with Beth S. Gersh-Nešić.  Ms. Smith will be discussing her translation of a previously unpublished book by Irène Némirovsky\, Master of Souls (Le maître des âmes). \nSandra Smith has translated twelve of Irène Némirovsky’s novels\, including the international sensation Suite Française\, into English. She has also translated works by Albert Camus\, Guy de Maupassant\, and Simone de Beauvoir\, among many others and is the recipient of numerous awards including the National Jewish Book Award and the PEN Translation Prize. \nBeth Susan Gersh-Nešić\, Ph.D. is an art historian and the director of the New York Arts Exchange\, an arts education service. Her translation and annotation of André Salmon’s first two books on art were published as André Salmon on French Modern Art (Cambridge University Press\, 2005)\, and her most recent book is a translation of Salmon expert Dr. Jacqueline Gojard’s Pablo Picasso\, André Salmon and “Young French Painting” (Za Mir Press\, 2022). She contributes to the online magazine Bonjour Paris and teaches art history at Mercy College.    \nIrène Némirovsky was born in Kiev\, Ukraine\, in 1903 into a wealthy Jewish family and was raised in a life of privilege in Europe. After fleeing Russia during the Revolution\, she immersed herself in the company of thinkers\, artists\, musicians\, and other cultural elites as part of the Parisian literati of her time. Sixty-two years after her death\, in 2004\, the never-before-published Suite Française brought international acclaim to this gifted writer\, whose life was tragically lost in the Holocaust. Master of Souls can be found at the following booksellers: Amazon\, Barnes & Noble\, Books-A-Million\, Bookshop.org. \nThis event will be on Zoom and is free for all Alliance Française members\, AATF members\, and invited guests of the presenter or publicist. Non-members or persons who have no AF chapter nearby can purchase tickets ($10). \nBecome a member here!

SUMMARY:Meet Author Laure de Rivières
DESCRIPTION:Register here! \n“When I answered that ad\, and God knows that at that time I would have taken anything\, I could’ve never imagined what was going to happen to me. No one could’ve guessed it. And I don’t know if anyone could’ve protected me from it.” Manon is 20 when she meets the man who will change the course of her life. Charming and sure of himself\, this fundamentalist Catholic and father of five children gradually reveals his troubled and dangerous character. Going headlong into the darkness of a family and a world which are foreign to her\, Manon embarks on a chaotic path from which no one will come out unscathed. Inspired by a true story\, this novel is told to us both by Manon\, a young independent student\, as well as by all the protagonists\, each with a different perspective and judgment. Who is this woman capable of abnegation\, of kindness but also of true freedom? \nLaure de Rivières is a screenwriter and La Belle Famille\, the best-selling novel of the summer 2022 season\, is her first novel. Join us as she speaks with Florence Klein\, co-Founder\, CEO and host of Startup Vision TV\, about her latest work. \nLa Belle Famille can be found on Amazon and at other booksellers. \nWednesday | September 7 |1 – 2 pm PT  \nThis event will be on Zoom and is free for all Alliance Française members\, AATF members\, and invited guests of the presenter or publicist. Non-members or persons who have no AF chapter nearby can purchase tickets ($10).  \nBecome a member here!

SUMMARY:Tangi Colombel\, Author\, actor and singer discusses his new novel
DESCRIPTION:Register here! \nTuesday\, July 19\, 2022\n9am PST / 12pm EST\nIn English and French \nJoin us in welcoming Tangi Colombel\, a favorite performer of the AF USA network\, for a Brown Bag Lunch Book Club. Tangi will be speaking to us about his new book in French\, La Saint Tous Là. \nTangi Colombel is a native of France. He is an actor and singer who appeared in various plays and musicals like “Jacques Brel is Alive ” and “Les Liaisons Dangereuses” at Palm Beach Dramaworks (FL). He was featured in the French Movie “Bienvenue à Bord” and the American Film “Step Up 4”. On television he has been seen in a French version of “My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiancé”\, in Netflix’s Bloodline season 2\, in CBS’s MacGyver season 4\, and several Telenovelas produced by NBC/Telemundo in Spanish. Recently he was seen in “Le peignoir aux Alouettes”\, a French modern Vaudeville at the Fillmore Theatre in Miami\, appeared in different commercials such as Sprite\, Johnny Rockets\, SC Lottery. He has toured all around America and the world (Korea\, Japan) to reveal what French Cabaret is really about in his own show “Pardon my French”. \nThis year\, he published his first book in French\, La Saint Tous Là\, which is a great success and has been at number one on Amazon France since it came out. \nRésumé du livre: \nMaurice Loiseau se retrouve au chômage après le dépôt de bilan de l’entreprise familiale au début des années 80. C’est le choc pour toute la famille\, comme nous le raconte Tangi\, notamment pour ses trois sœurs et lui qui hériteront alors d’un apprenti père au foyer. Au sein d’un environnement familial contraint par le lourd handicap d’Emmanuelle\, la cadette\, chacun à son niveau fera de son mieux pour contribuer à redresser la barre. \nDans cette famille aimante aux parents catholiques pratiquants tirant sans cesse le diable par la queue\, mais également soixante-huitards aux doutes mécréants\, on ouvre volontiers la porte\, la huche et les cœurs à tous les nécessiteux de mondes parfois interlopes\, malgré l’adversité. On tente de vivre selon les valeurs profondes auxquelles on croit. De tentative de formation en rebondissement\, de projets ambitieux en porte de sortie inattendue\, la smala vivra une épopée\, une aventure humaine hors du commun. \nLa Saint Tous Là est un récit touchant\, pétri d’humanité. C’est parfois triste quand la vie ne fait pas de cadeaux. C’est souvent drôle quand les enfants\, joueurs impénitents\, tentent de la déchiffrer de leur regard tout neuf. Depuis les traditions bretonnes des villages d’Armorique aux croyances innombrables – spiritisme\, loups-garous… – jusqu’aux rêves de star de la lointaine Amérique\, Tangi se trace son chemin… \nTo purchase La Saint Tous Là\, please visit Amazon.com. \nThis event will be on Zoom and is in English and free for all Alliance Française members\, AATF members\, and invited guests of the presenter or publicist. Non-members or persons who have no AF chapter nearby can purchase tickets ($10).

SUMMARY:Jazz in Paris
DESCRIPTION:Register here! \nThursday\, July 7\, 2022\n4:00pm PT / 7:00pm ET \nIn English \nPerhaps nothing epitomizes the cultural bond of France and the United States better than the joyous reception of jazz in Paris. Introduced by Black American soldiers and musicians during and following the First World War\, jazz was embraced by the French and swept the country. \nParis—long the cradle of the avant-garde and where black Americans could live free of racial discrimination—provided a haven for the great American and French musicians who lived and worked there\, including Josephine Baker\, Sidney Bechet\, Ada “Bricktop” Smith\, Django Reinhardt\, Stephane Grappelli\, and Arthur Briggs. Jazz influenced composers like Ravel\, and artists like Matisse. Duke Ellington triumphed there in 1933 and played in France more than any other foreign country in his 50-year career. \nCo-creators of The Lafayette Escadrille documentary\, filmmakers Darroch Greer and Paul Glenshaw\, share great moments\, characters\, and incredible music from this century-long\, ongoing love affair. \nThis event will be on Zoom and is in English and free for all Alliance Française members\, AATF members\, and invited guests of the presenter or publicist. Non-members or persons who have no AF chapter nearby can purchase tickets ($10).
