5 - CANADA Les hivers de mon enfance étaient des saisons longues, longues. Nous vivions en trois lieux: l`école, l`église et la patinoire: mais la vraie vie était sur la patinoire. - Roch Carrier - The winters of my childhood were long, long seasons. We lived in three places - the school, the church and the skating rink - but our real life was on the skating rink 5 IMPRIME EN 2006 / PRINTED IN 2006 |
