I saw an ad for this yesterday and it sounds very interesting. Kind of expensive, but I've always liked the idea of bilingual books.

Read Terrific French Books Without a Dictionary!

Become a charter member of Linguality’s French Book Club and read recently published French fiction and nonfiction almost as effortlessly as you read books in English! The key is the extensive glossary we place opposite every page of text.

We’re not talking about a few scattered definitions. EVERY difficult word and expression is defined, typically over 2,000 entries per book. It’s the Linguality innovation: current fiction and nonfiction with so much annotation you don’t need a translation, or even a dictionary. (To see a sample, click here.) With just an intermediate command of French, you can enjoy outstanding contemporary francophone literature and dramatically expand your French vocabulary.

As a bonus, each of our titles comes with a Free audio CD containing a fascinating 30- to 45-minute conversation in French with the author. We make it easy to understand by including a transcript with glossary as an appendix in the book.
