PARIS. The French have found a new way of protesting against President Nicolas Sarkozy: reading "La Princesse de Cleves", a 17th century tale of thwarted love. Ever since school, Sarkozy says, he has hated the classical novel. Now, as his popularity falls, sales of the book are rising. At the Paris book fair this week, publishers sold all available copies , while badges saying "I am reading La Princesse de Cleves" sold out within hours.
