Praise for "The Red Notebook" "An endearing love story written in
beautifully poetic prose. It is an enthralling mystery about
chasing the unknown, the nostalgia for what could have been, and
most importantly, the persistence of curiosity."San Francisco Book
Review"Praise for "The President's Hat" "Its gentle satirical humor
reminded me of Jacques Tati's classic films."Library
Journal"Irresistibly whimsical, possessed of wit somewhere between
that of Alan Bennett's in "The Uncommon Reader "and Muriel
Barbery's in "The Elegance of the Hedgehog," and thoroughly
entertaining"The King's English Bookshop, Salt Lake CityAntoine

indifferent, and eventually the band split up, each going their own
way.Alain is overcome by nostalgia, and is tempted to track down
the members of the group. But in a world where everything and
everyone has changed ...where will his quest take him?Antoine
