Anyone have recommendations for French literature? Nothing too serious, but I want to have an end goal for my studies.

I heard that French 'people' actual talk in some kind of fucked up pig-latin style. Is that true? I would find it very discouraging if I was learning the language.

Are there any novels about soldiers in the Grande Armée?
Is there anything like a Hero of Our Time? That's my favourite novel

to think that french would be akin to pig latin while it has been one of the most rational and academical european language (see any article about "académie française") is a start
ignoring the literary tradition would be a good element too
also it is "monsieur", learn the language if you've got to be ironic without looking like a tard
