Description
Using a process-writing approach, Krueger/Fauvel's TACHES D'ENCRE: FRENCH COMPOSITION, 5th edition, helps you master your writing skills, find your voice in written French and -- ultimately -- become a confident author. Organized in a workbook format, this third-year composition text is written entirely in French, except for the introductory chapter. Each chapter begins and ends with a creative writing exercise. In between these, you will broaden your repertoire of related speech acts, vocabulary, grammatical structures and stylistic elements as illustrated in a rich assortment of specially chosen literary excerpts, journalistic selections and informal writings. In addition, timely new readings and activities promote diversity throughout.
