Love languages / James Albon.

Marietta : Top Shelf Productions, 2025.

176 pages : chiefly illustrations (colour) ; 26 cm

Sarah Huxley has moved from London to Paris, only to find a lonely life of corporate drudgery and disappointment - a far cry from her romantic expectations of the city. She collides with Ping Loh, a young woman from Hong Kong working as an au pair for a Parisian family, and the two bond over their shared struggle with the French tongue. In museums and markets, over text messages and translation apps, Ping and Sarah slowly begin to learn each other's languages, communicating in a rich and ever-shifting blend of English, French and Cantonese. As their friendship blooms, so does their private dialect - a personal linguistic patchwork, a shared secret just for them.
