I think "supposedly" is unnecessary.
Bellow you can find hits from amazon, but I think there are more Chion's
works available in english.
The best one to start with - regarding soundtracks - is La music au
cinema, Music in cinema.
More specific problems on sound in cinema - his trilogy Le son au
cinema, La voix au cinema, La parole au cinema, (sound, voice, spoken word).
To check also his early works Le poeme symphonique et la musique á
programme,
musiques electroacoustiques
