Pailler, whose book, Maria Pia, has just been published by Bertrand Editora in Lisbon! We have been serializing this book in English form since the beginning of Projected Letters, and are proud to a part of the adventure! Congratulations again!

Now is this subject worth discussion? You tell me. Give us just one tiny reason for reading the Maria Pia stuff.?

It's also the biggest piece on Projected Letters hit-wise. It's the most looked at, and the most stayed-on piece on the site. An historical saga worth reading even for ardent anti-monarchists like myself. « Last Edit: May 07, 2006, 01:27:22 PM by Gregor Millen » Logged Tony Tiger Guest Re: Maria Pia « Reply #4 on: April 06, 2006, 09:37:17 AM » I knew an old queen once.

Guest Re: Maria Pia « Reply #5 on: June 07, 2006, 03:27:14 PM » Once I got into a familiar restaurant (now demolished) in a seaside place (now forgotten) and there was this old lady, all in black, demure and drab, sitting all alone on a chair with a small handbag on her knees. She was so much out of place in that trendy place where strange bargains would be cut after midnight, that I wondered. Then a man came to pick her up and I realized she was the Queen of Bulgaria waiting for her brother the King of Italy. Oh dear! Queens were a-plenty in that place.

Or is the crafty author just leaving us like that hanging on a last question mark? That would be very unfair - and very typically French.   Al Logged Gregor Milne Administrator Poster Monkey Posts: 72 The best friend I ever had Re: Maria Pia « Reply #7 on: October 30, 2006, 12:54:12 PM » Part 8 coming soon!

If that dastardly frog can't deliver the end of the story, why don't PL launch a competition about the most inventive final chapter? Missing lady elopes with Swiss frigate's crew, or seomething...   Al  (Zwell on Godzearth) Logged Pages: [1]   « previous next » Jump to: Please select a destination: ----------------------------- Literature ----------------------------- => Comment on our authors => Fiction Workshop => Poetry Workshop => Non-fiction ----------------------------- Site Comments and Help ----------------------------- => News => Comments => ERROR ----------------------------- Film ----------------------------- => New Releases => Classic Film
