101 Conversations in Intermediate French: Short, Natural Dialogues to Improve Your French From Home
*** New Intermediate Edition! ***
Improve your spoken French from home with 101 real-world conversations in intermediate French.
Real French people don't speak like your textbook... so it's no wonder you feel unprepared when it's your turn to speak! This book fixes that. For the first time, you'll learn to move beyond beginner level, and speak French in the real world! With 101 authentic conversations in intermediate French, so you'll become confident in the words, phrases and expressions you need to communicate like a local.
101 Conversations in Intermediate French transports you into a real-world story that unfolds between six French characters, told by the people themselves. Over 15,000 words of real French, you'll immerse yourself in a gripping French drama and get an education in natural French in the process. Here's what you'll get:
The story is set in France and includes expressions that are typical in Parisian French. However, since the conversations use mostly "neutral" French, you'll have plenty to learn, whether you're learning the French of France, Quebec, or Morocco. Created by Olly Richards, internationally-renowned language teacher and author, 101 Conversations in Intermediate French gives you an experience in real French that you won't find anywhere else. You'll be better prepared for using French in the real world, speak with more confidence, and take a giant leap towards fluency in French!

Regardez! Maintenant je parle français comme un natif

J’ai voulu recommencer mes études de français depuis quelques temps, et ce livre audio était parfait pour commencer. Chaque dialogue est facile à suivre, et le livre électronique correspondant m’a beaucoup aidé lorsque j'avais besoin d'aide pour apprendre du nouveau vocabulaire. Malgré la simplicité du livre, le mystère principale et les intrigues secondaires étaient assez intéressantes. Je recommande ce texte (imprimé et/ou audio) à d'autres élèves de français dans ma situation.

Fine enough, though I find that the thematic volumes are the best of Richards' serieses. However well advanced the signalling is, the conversations are interesting and bite-sized enough not to scare the beginning reader.

Ça marche
Well I can tell it works when I find myself thinking in French all the time even though I live in the same place here in US. Also, I wanted to keep reading to find out what happens next and who the mysterious painter is (not saying you do…). There are probably over 100 words in each of the 101 conversations. And maybe an average of eight words translated at the end of each. So do the math. It’s a lot of learning depending where you are. You definitely have to already know a lot of French to do it the way Olly wants and not study the story from dictionary. I did it pretty much that way.

Such a good mystery book!
The storyline itself was a really good mystery, and I really enjoyed reading it.
I started reading it for the “French conversations “ but not only was it a good language learning book, it had a good plot to it.

Fun little mystery told in French! This time instead of paintings being stolen from a market, a painting has mysteriously appeared in the Louvre, and its contents just may be the clue to multiple crimes throughout Paris…

An excellent book for seeing French in context. Short chapters give you a sense of achievement. Quite a long book, so good value for money as you're unlikely to get through it too quickly.

Outstanding. Interesting story and clear reading on audio.

I picked this book up because I'm trying to improve my French. It was simple and entertaining. The twists and turns of the story did help me visualize different circumstances in which the vocabulary was used. Thus, I did improve on my French vocabulary and ability to understand and read the language. Keep in mind the purpose of the book is primarily for learning French, not the entertainment of exquisite literature.
