Etcherelli, Dhotel, Veraldi, Robles, Estaunie

I have read Etcherelli's Elise ou la vraie vie, a well-written novel about a young woman getting out from under a brother's tutelage and working; Andre Dhotel, who wrote the picaresque Pays ou l'on n'arrive jamais; Gabriel Veraldi's Machine humaine; Emmanuel Robles' Les Hauteurs de la ville; and Cantegril, a pastoral written in part in patois. I also skimmed Gene Sharp's second and more nuanced book on non-violence.
