There’s more to this island than meets the eye: Joe learns it is home to the world’s greatest Sports Academy.

It is often said that two things are unavoidable: death and taxes.Certainly the latter is a common thorn in adult life, but as to the former it seems that for many people it is merely a hiccup in life’s eternal journey.

In this audiobook, I first read the poem in slow enunciated French then use simple, everyday French language to explain each individual verse. I then talk about the life of the author, give a full analysis of the poem and finally re-read the poem at a faster speed with a more personal interpretation.

Comment rendre compte de la vie et de l'œuvre de celui qui fut, pour reprendre les mots de Gérard Gengembre, un continent littéraire ? C'est à partir de ce défi que l'auteur entame un récit biographique et une critique littéraire de Victor Hugo.
