Two months of Books I read (and saw) while travelling in October and November. An Italian “giallo” read in Rome, a French “roman policier” in French-speaking Marrakech, and in English, a couple of mysteries, a memoir about life in Paris, a coming-of-age romance set in Paris, and a Women’s Prize-shortlisted novel.
