"Lettre à France - Michel Polnareff" has been shared to the blog from the French reading exercises section of the learning library where you can find a large selection of interactive texts to help you with your reading skills.
In 1978, Michel Polnareff, in “exile” to the United States, expressed his mal du pays in this cult love anthem. Enjoy this classic hit from one of our most beloved French singers.
