It's been mentioned to me. I question the scope of the audience in English, though, in truth.

Market decisions, bah, humbug.

I wonder. Perhaps a WD-sponsored translation available only via Amazon. What's a reasonable estimate of the cost, Sharon?

Oh, that's too much.

Which tome, or are we talking about the whole oeuvre?

The journey of a 1000 miles begins with ....

On other hand, the market might be bigger and more willing if it believed that the whole oeuvre was coming, albeit one volume at a time.
 
I thought that was just an article.

How big is the oeuvre? Any tips on where to start?

ETA an ignorant question: is there a connection between Chauvet and Claude Bourgignon?

Amazon France has four books. Together, they are a little over 500 pages. Two of the books are interviews. The longest one is a collection of essays. It's not that forbidding.

Thanks. That doesn't sound like too much. Any idea about a connection to Bourgignon?

I'm not sure what your question is. Chauvet was from Burgundy. Since I haven't read the books, I don't know if they have a particular concern with Burgundy. From what I can get from the descriptions on the Amazon site, I would guess not.
 
Well, then, not that I can see. But one can't see much. Sharon, it sounds as if you have read some of the texts. You should be better able to answer the question.

Also; I remember visiting Seghesio, in Barolo, in June of '96, and his best lot (at least best of them to my taste) was one in concrete which he intended to blend with those in oak, prior to bottling his "Barolo." Couple of things of interest, to me, at least, in this: A) If Barolo needs to be in wood for three years, why was this the best wine of the vintage? B) Didn't adding this lot disqualify the blend from being "Barolo?"

B) Yes.
A) Two replies. A1) Look where you were. A2) Are we discussing "Barolo" or Barolo?

Will get back to the discussion after thoroughly celebrating my wife's birthday.

Write is might.

Steve, with all due respect, please don't knock "brains" as "mere". In some quarters, they are referred to as "offal".
 
Couldn't agree more, Steve....that was my point. Brains are at least good for something...if you read P.C's "Offal" post....(not that I intuit I should go out and fry up a batch of gray matter sometime soon....)

No knocking intended; but the brains have their limits, and we have other faculties with plenty to offer!

True. But the brain is pretty darn important for our sensory perceptions.
