Soft power goes limp

A very interesting article on today’s BBC website about the problems facing French publishing, book-selling and general literary culture. To my mind, the situation has much in common with that in Russia.

Why don't French books sell abroad?

     Do readers agree with some or all of the Russian parallels, or not?
