Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar is the first collection of stories by Maurice Leblanc recounting the adventures of Arsène Lupin. Now available in a bilingual edition, with English and French side by side. The perfect way to learn French – by reading Maurice Leblanc’s charming original text with English translation right by side to guide you in case you need help. It makes it very suitable for learning both French and English. First published in 1905, Maurice Leblanc’s creation, gentleman thief Arsène Lupin, is everything you would expect from a French aristocrat – witty, charming, brilliant, sly … and possibly the greatest thief in the world. The poor and innocent have nothing to fear from him; often they profit from his spontaneous generosity. The rich and powerful, and the detective who tries to spoil his fun, however, must beware. They are the target of Arsene’s mischief and tomfoolery. Parallel texts are a very useful and versatile tool in the language learning process. It’s one of the best ways to experience the original text and authentic linguistic environment even for the less confident readers because the help is just a glance away to check the other language. The parallel text also facilitates access to more challenging texts for the language learner, be it because of the vocabulary or the complexity of the grammar or syntax. – ASIN: B09GCXM2BH | ISBN13: 9798477847303 | ISBN-13: 979-8477847303
