A four page interview of which I understand only the words “Bridget Jones”, “Sex and the City” and “chicklit-ster” (growl) has just come out in the Christmas edition of Dutch weekly magazine HP/De Tijd.
If anyone out there can read Dutch and would like to translate the quotes and/or give me the gist, I’d be really interested to be able to read (some of) it, as it was the first book related interview I ever gave. If you send me an email or put up a comment I can send you the full pdf.
Dutch speakers may also be interested to know that the book will be on sale in Holland and Belgium, published by De Bezige Bij (busy bee!), in the last week of January/first week of February 2008.
For those of you who can’t read it, I give you the wardrobe malfunction from page 4 for your amusement.
Incidentally, I do know how to translate the title. It’s not “slim, sexy and drugged” but rather “smart, sexy and busy”…

You expect ANY of the men reading this to bother translating anything?
Actually, scrap that. Translation of photo on page 4 follows: What a lovely.. smile you have. So warm and friendly.
What?
Comment by Gordon — December 20, 2007 @ 4:34 pm
Perhaps someone has the instructions in Flemish for cropping in photoshop? I know where they could send them… (I yi yi. I’m cringing for you.)
Comment by La Rêveuse — December 20, 2007 @ 4:36 pm
LOL – slim, sexy and drugged! – good luck with the translation. Try reading it and have the cheek to take it for what it sounds like, it’s likely to be right. (“,)
Comment by teeweewonders — December 20, 2007 @ 4:52 pm
I hear that a possible translation would be “intelligent, sexy and hyperactive”.
Cheers !
Comment by Rama — December 20, 2007 @ 4:53 pm
Sorry I can’t help you with the flemish but I hope you’ll find someone to end this terrible suspense. It’s been only a few days since I found your blog and it’s my first comment, so congratulations for your writing and your sense of storytelling. I read a few random entries and I laughed a lot in front of my screen. I guess I’ll simply have to buy the book.
Comment by Delphine in Antibes — December 20, 2007 @ 4:59 pm
Actually, I first read “Slim, sexy and drunk”.
Dutch is such a poetic language…

OH my god, surely they could have cropped that picture?!?
The title might make a good banner, no?

Flemish? Ahem… Do you speak American or Australian?
As far as I know Dutch magazines publish in Dutch (as do Flemish ones)…
Comment by hidh — December 20, 2007 @ 5:22 pm
Oh, if you send me the pdf I will try to find time to make a translation later this week or the next (sorry, it’s a long text and I don’t have much time right now – plus I’m not a professional translator so I work slowly). Will send you the email separately.
Comment by hidh — December 20, 2007 @ 5:27 pm
Warm and inviting. That’s how I would read it. You look happy, content and feminine. Tres sexy.
I see what you mean about the wardrobe malfunction. Short sleeves ‘are’ always a problem ;-)
Nice threpny bits though. (note to self, must stop thinking out loud)!
Comment by Steve... — December 20, 2007 @ 5:33 pm
If you send me a copy, I’ll do my best. It does look a bit long, but I think it’ll be fun.
Comment by Zerlina — December 20, 2007 @ 5:41 pm
Threpny bits? That’s a) one I’ve not heard before and b) not much of a compliment really!!!
Maybe it’s less about ‘smart, sexy and busy’ and more about ‘smart, sexy and busty’?
Comment by In Style Gal — December 20, 2007 @ 5:45 pm
Crikey, even if I could speak Flemish I’m currently lost for words!
Comment by Greg — December 20, 2007 @ 5:55 pm
Come on, it was a male editor and he did crop that photo properly. My goodness. Thanks for putting up an enlarged version, we can see your eyes very well.
Comment by joeinvegas — December 20, 2007 @ 6:27 pm
What’s all the talk about photoshop and cropping the photo? It’s a pleasant, relaxed shot. Take the head off and it’s just voyeuristic. ;-)
Comment by Baz — December 20, 2007 @ 6:45 pm
I honestly cannot see any photographer or editor who had such an attractive image of you deciding not to use it in that article. It goes with the territory; part of the article will be about how attractive you are, and the picture demonstrates that! If you doubt me, ask ‘the Boy’.
At the risk of inviting coals of fire, I suspect you’re sneakily quite pleased.
John Norris
Comment by John Norris — December 20, 2007 @ 6:56 pm
Can you send the PDF to me and I will see what I can do? I can’t get access to it online and would enjoy reading it and trying to translate.
Comment by Amanda — December 20, 2007 @ 7:25 pm
I’d say that description is merely scratching the surface–with sexy leading the way–my oh my that pic on pg 4-the boy better damn well be happy. I’d say you that are the keeper rather than the other way around Yikes girl, you go Woot! lol

nice wardrobe-malfunction btw, stupid photographer must have grinned!
Comment by Calypso — December 20, 2007 @ 11:28 pm
The picture shows you have a lovely smile … while you wait for others to translate the article in its entirety you can always try the online Babelfish translator at http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr
It’s always good for a laugh. The taster para that you get from the link in your blog translates thus: “The celebrity of chicklit ASTRE Catherine started Sanderson with web-unwieldly concerning its life. Lunch in Paris with the new Bridget Jones.”
Comment by James — December 21, 2007 @ 12:30 am
What kind of a title is that? I mean, don’t get me wrong, you are slim, sexy and more often drunk than druk but, seriously, why that title? ;-)
PS: I do think that Dutch is the sexiest language in the world though.

I picked up HP/deTijd on my way into work this morning and as an American expat in Holland (but one who has been abroad considerably longer, ie 30 years) I was immediatley interested in the article. Don’t worry – the contents of the article are all very favourable and I predict great success for you in Holland. Unlike the French, the Dutch are extremely interested in what other people have to say about them, and about their fellow Europeans. Looking forward to your book.

the title means “intelligent, sexy and busy”, very close to your translation.

Well, seeing as you appear to be naked (if only in silouette) on the cover of the American edition, the Dutch magazine probably decided that a flash of boob was in keeping with… wait – this isn’t helping, is it?

Found this ‘petite’ gem of a blog by accident today and have been in catchup mode ever since. Glad you won your case btw.
The wardrobe malfunction may have been the lure to attract me but the amusing and informative posts will keep me coming back for more.
NO, dammit, I don’t mean more wardrobe malfunctions.
Well not really.

The so-called “wardrobe malfunction” is really sexy. What’s wrong with showing a little cleavage? At least the nip isn’t making an appearance…

Dear Basil–Yes we men do slaver; in many ways it’s what we do best. However, women at times do seem to enjoy the adoration if not always the slavering. (Pardon while I wipe my mouth :-)) Hell bells, man, where would we men be without women? A sorry lot indeed, methinks. So Catherine, wardrobe malfunction be blessed :-) You are truly a beautiful woman and highly talented. And one hell of a writer, a natural. Can’t wait for the book–am ordering from the UK. With drool, love and affection.

Quite frankly, I am more taken in by your face than what may, or may not be showing from your blouse….On that note, I hope the article did some justice to the fact that you are an excellent writer, and not a “Bridget Jones” clone. (The press has a poor habit of distilling things down to the lowest common denominator.)

I always notice the lovely smile first when looking at that picture.
Yesterday I got an automated message from Amazon’s computer profusely apologising because, in spite of their best efforts, they were going to be unable to deliver my copy of your book before Christmas. I had been hoping to get my copy two months before the book comes out.
Comment by Pierre L — December 23, 2007 @ 11:17 am
I don’t think it’s been printed yet, to be fair.. I don’t have my copy yet.
I’ll be proofing the US version between Christmas Eve (when DHL will deliver it) and Jan 4th. Should be fun…

Hmm since PA’s link says “Bezige” means “busy” I fired up Wikipedia and lo and behold, in Bhutan “Druk” means “fire-dragon” (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Druk_tsendhen).
I’ll say no more lest I raise the ire of our favourite smart and sexy “fire dragon” :-)

Hi,
Been reading for a long, long time – and enjoying – and on occasion sympathising, often learning, from your prose – the travails of a simple English person here in Paris. I admire how much you have said, so honestly – about your life. You are a very brave woman – but now – I do feel you have finaly adapted – and become Parisian – and of course, as is part of the game here – mercenary – I can SO wish to bring back the “niaveté”, of a wonderful woman who discovered things, each and every day, about France and the French, by themselves, and expressed it so eloquently, as they felt it.
I will still check – and read your blog, but I feel I have to say – maybe – ’tis time – for you – to move on, as I feel you now feel you HAVE to blog.
PS This was a personal, probably very unsympathetic comment – and there is no need to publish. I just felt I should say it. I DO wish you all – very good luck in the future.
DS Paris

“druk” c’est aussi le radical de “drukken” = imprimer (“drukkerij” = imprimerie)

Nice story in HP/DE TIJD: four pages of free publicity.
I will buy two copies of your book, one for myself and one for a Dutch lady friend who married a mr. Frog about forty years ago. His father was a Breton and his mother half Corse. The result produces enough stories for at least two more of your books.
Good luck!

Petite, in that supposed ‘wardrobe malfunction photograph, you look oddly like J.K. Rowling (who had one of those episodes herself, only hers happened at Carnegie Hall). And your book deserves better than to be described as ‘chick-lit’.

Intro of the article:
What do women want? Every day, publishers in New York and London are trying to answer that question, and they are not alone. The entertainement industry, television stations, filmstudio’s, magazines even the more upscale shops – nothing is more important to them than figuring out how the female audience can be persuaded. The two biggest succes stories in this subject are Helen Fieldings Bridget Ones’s Diary and Candace Bushnells SATC. In both cases, the startingpoint was a unpretentious column that grew to a worldwide business with numerous imitations.
[…]
Sandersons blog, Petite Anglaise, is a rarity on the internet. […] Most blogs are unreadable, unless you share the bloggers interest. Petite Anglaise on the other hand is for anyone who can read and likes to read.
NB The article is very positive about your blog and your book.

I founded out about your blog in a Belgium Magazine Knack. The article was about the pulishing of your book. I just had the time to cross your blog, and when I read this part I saw you where looking for translation from ducth to english. I you want I will translate this article for you in english (or french if you like). As you I’m also a writer. At this moment I’m writing poetry. Hereby a link to read some of my poetry:
http://www.litterature.tv/article.php3?id_article=322&titre=Divertissement-du-bleuatre
The strangest thing about me is that, I’m in a similar situation as you are. I’m from Belgium the flemish part. I’ fell in love with France and its language around the age of 12. From this moment on french litterature and culture became on obbession. And I started reading french litterature. So I started writing my one poetry of cours in french.
The only thing I didn’t do was leave Belgium to live in France (not for this moment).
I hope you will take the time to read some of my poemes and that you send me back your remarks.
(Sorry for my English)
Amitié Paul.

hello,
I also just read the article in the magazine Knack, it’s a quit possitive article they road about you, nice to read and it’s like you’re a mistery girl, although not like Bridget Jones..i don’t think you’re hopless? I like you’re way of writing, but after all of this ..is there some point you wanna get? Does this weblog has a meaning beside letting Mr.Frogg reading you’re articles? These questions are not intend to be mean…i really like to know where you are up to now. So, hope to hear more from you ..and you don’t like to spent thime reading all this messages i am wishing you a great family, good luck..and more writing!

I just read the Weekend-Knack. Nice interview.
But what is DUTCH (nederlands) and FLEMISH (vlaams), as I can read in this blog?
In Flanders, we speak Dutch, the official language. Flemish is the name for our variant of the language, as differ British English and American English.
In the Netherlands, they speak Dutch. So, we speak the same language.
But In flanders, only the elderly say that they speak “flemish” (“vlaams”). But all the rest what come from Flanders is Flemish (flemish beer, flemish food, …).
And what is “Belgian”? Just the fries and the chocolate.

Well, I would think it strange if you didn’t have the translation by now, but if you don’t, you are welcome to send it to me. I’ll have it back to you in no time. I’m a Belgian living in Brasil and I just had the pleasure of reading about your blog and the book in Knack (09-15/01/2008). I really hope that someone will be able to send me the book because I have little faith of finding it here in English.
