The French translation of Fr. Schmemann's Journal has arrived from, well, France. As it's been several years since I did any sustained reading in French, this could take years for me to read. That seems like a fine thing to me.
This one is not as cut up as the version published by St. Vlad's Press some twelve years ago. For that reason, it's 862 pages, not counting notes and suchlike. Still, the last line of the last entry by the dying Fr. Schmemann is the same, and is a word for all of us: Quel bonheur cela a été.
