Official Tour Photo Book - Celine autour du monde

[autumnskies00]

I have two questions. On amazon.ca when I searched the book it said it was soft cover. Isn't there a hardcover version? I couldn't find it.

 

Also, for anyone who has the book, in the uniondale New York photos, are there any photos of the audience?

 

Thanks, can't wait to get this!

it's listed as softcover, although it's the hardcover version!

I got my copy yesterday, yey! I love it! I love the backstage photos and the family photos, from her time off, from rehearsals etc. I expected something more from the concerts photos, but they're nice. You can really tell Gerard is a press photographer... I like more art photography, but they're really nice. Wish I was in Gerard's place, I can tell you that. And not only because I would have been so close to Celine, but because I'm passionate about photography, and what better subject?! Also, sometimes the photos are not really well put on page... the the face in the middle of the book where you can't really see it, or stuff like that. But, overall, I love it! What a great tour! I love RC's reactions in some of the photos, like when he's looking at that pizza or the one with the remote controlled helicopter... precious!

I know it's been a hard tour for her and that she had bad moments and that they picked mostly the photos were she was all happy and cheerful, but it really looks like they had the time of their lives. Especially for Rene-Charles, to have these amazing memories for the rest of his life. I have almost no memories of when I was 7,8, 9 years old, cause nothing memorable happened to me. I think it's great Celine and Rene opened up the world for him like that.

i expected to see some more pictures of amsterdam... but it is still a great book!

[aicee]

OMG! so when will be the official release of the said book worldwide?

[angelil78]

Any news about the english version??

[ladylindsey]

I officially cancelled my 11 day backordered amazon.ca order and re-ordered from France. It should be here this week HOLY DION it was hard to get a copy of this book! I agree, they should have made it a worldwide release in English and French at the same time. Or the English booksellers should have carried it As long as it arrives on my doorstep this week i will be ECSTATIC! I have already cleared a spot for it smack dab in the middle of my living room coffee table. Oh yes.

[anewdayhascome]

exactly, they will think that French version is a success because majority of us is buying it and later when the English version comes out it will not sell so well because many of us won't buy a second one.... it's sad

I was thinking about getting this as well, How much did you paid for it from amazon.fa I see that it is listed still for $139 or 135, from both amazons.

Oh my God Thats a lot of money for a book. I guess thats me out of the running for a copy then I so wanted one as well

[angelil78]

I´m not buying the french copy. I can read a bit of french and have fantastic french dictionary but I want the book in english so that I don´t have to wonder if I understood the text correctly.

 

can't wait to get the book in my hands!

[Frida]

There really isn't much text, so I see no point in rejecting the french version..

Oh dear now I seriously am gonna think about buying the book.

 

You always make me want stuff Frida

Use the link that CSCFan provided. I got my copy very quickly (for a total of £32 including postage & packing)

I agree 99% (the only problem I have is understanding the Preface pages by Céline and Gérard). I'm going to sit down one evening and try translating the two pages

Haha, I'm sorry

True, but I'm sure a french speaking member can make a rough translation.. I semi-understand it, but am no where good enough to do so..

 

But other than the preface, it's mainly about the pictures..

[ladylindsey]

The book from amazon.fr is only about $56 USD plus shipping about $20 or so. Not too bad. Considering I will actually get it before I'm 80 now haha.

 

I agree, I will probably get the English version when it comes out, too, just to have for my library, but it's a photo book so it really won't matter so much. Plus the online translation sites are great and I have a French dictionary I figure a photo of Céline making faces like this are pretty universal

[celinefan5]

I was in Paris yesterday and got the book....it is great...

[Fanny!]

By the way, Gérard will be in Québec from the 18th to the 24th.

[Timster]

Amazon.fr and Amazon.ca both say the book is paperback. But there is only 1 version and that is hardback, right?

[CSCfan]

Yup

[kathy4]

i am waiting for the english version hopefully it won't be too expensive.

[nuts2you]

I have notice that celinedion.com will be out with there"s soon.

[nuts2you]

Oh I forgot to say, We are JUST a little SPOILDED now, with the book and now the DVD,, boy what next can't WAIT to found out..

Somebody here was ordering the book from proxis.de if i can remember so well.How that goes for delivery in Europe?How many days and is it cheaper and safer?Can somebody tell me?Thanx. Edited October 14, 2009 at 09:44 AM by cmcdaori

Céline Autour Du Monde is also on sale through CélineDion.nl with a 20% discount (so that makes the price €31,92)!

People in Holland, Belgium & Luxemburg pay no shipping fees, people in Europe about €4 (still cheaper with the discount) and outside Europe €5 (also still cheaper).

 

You can order through this page!

You have to order through the "Celine Autour Du Monde"link and use a code. The explanation is in Dutch (but the store can also be read in English, click "EN" in the upper right corner), so if you need any help just PM me...

 

Have you ordered through this page and how it goes???Is this proxis.be or proxis.nl?Is it the same?Thanx..

Oh nice.Thank you.But i think is the same because when i go to the proxis.nl and when i put the english translation it goes to proxis.be(i made mistake,not de,but be).Weird ,but is only important that it delivers soon.I saw,absolutely cheaper than amazon.fr.How many days it took to come to you?
