If you love France and the French language you'll love Champs-Elysées, the audiomagazine for intermediate-to-advanced speakers of French.

Edited in Paris and hosted by Georges Lang, one of France's best-known radio personalities, each monthly edition (eleven issues a year) is an unbeatable combination of entertaining audio, rich annotation, and challenging pedagogy.

If you think cable television, radio, or the Internet offer similar benefits, consider this: each issue of Champs-Elysées comes on an audio CD/cassette so that you can work on your French while commuting, jogging, walking the dog, or cooking dinner. Just pop the CD or cassette into any standard player and listen wherever and whenever you want! Each hour-long program is packed with interesting news, interviews, and features on topics ranging from politics and current affairs to sports, travel, film, and literature--all presented in French by native speakers. You also get a magazine containing a word-for-word printed transcript of the program. Difficult words and phrases are highlighted in bold in the text and defined in an extensive (500 entries on average) French-English glossary conveniently placed on the right-hand facing pages throughout the transcript section of the booklet. As well as key contextual definitions, the glossary contains explanations of tricky grammatical constructions. At the back of the booklet there are fascinating background notes that give you additional information about the people, places, and issues discussed in the program. There are even URLs for Web sites you can access to get more in-depth information.
