Anne Wiazemsky novel


I've already posted on an Anne Wiazemsky thread, but i wanted to alert all those with any interest in AU HASARD BALTHAZAR about the recent novel by Anne Wiazemsky.

The title is JEUNE FILLE, it is published by Gallimard in France, it was published in January of 2007.

It is about the summer of 1965, when the "young girl", Anne, is asked to perform in a film by Robert Bresson. (It begins with the main character, Anne, being taken by her friend Florence Carrez - the star of Bresson's PROCES DE JEANNE D'ARC - to meet Bresson; he is delighted to meet Anne, and asks her to be in the film he is making.)

I've been patiently waiting for an english translation of this since I heard it was being published. Anybody know anything further?
