Rosine Auberting left Paris for Dublin, where she became an integral cog in Irish feminist politics. .” Rosine introduced me to Paris bars and Rochers Suchard. Rosine delighted in teaching me French, with all her rollicking wit and many quotes, including the words to Le Tourbillon de la Vie and Piaf songs. She was happiest in the years spent teaching, although forever concerned that off-pronunciation in her near perfect English might expose her. (Berlitz ruled that only native English speakers could teach English – a rule Rosine triumphantly flouted.)
