Unsure about the poet / author thing. I think you should be able to, as most colleges teach 2 just in case you hate the Qs in the exam. I'm doing Les Mains Sales, by Jean-Paul Sartre and (will it snow for Xmas - a film) but we haven't started this yet. I'm currently procrastinating from writing a 9 page essay about existentialism in French so... You?
