Alert Janeite Paola, who keeps an eye on the Francophone Janeite news for us, passed on a link to a French edition of Emma with a cover illustrated by the fashion designer Christian Lacroix. M. Lacroix has illustrated covers for nine classic novels, which are available separately or together in a limited edition slipcase.

The cover is beautiful, but I’m trying to discover the name of the translator – which I would always consider important in a translated book?

My sister (Paola) and I bought Emma, La Princesse de Clèves and Une Vie, they’re all so cute.
I’m learning French and I can’t wait to be able to read Emma as if it were all new to me.
The translator is Pierre Nordon.
