Just a mid book about a man who fucked up his life. Debated not finishing but figured I was more than halfway, so finished. I think I just hate books centered completely on the male protagonist.

Ce roman est un mouvement: on suit le personnage principal Léo en marchant avec lui c'est comme s'il traçait le chemin qu'on suit.
Très descriptif mais pas moins rapide puisqu'on peut se retrouver à parler d'un quotidien long et juste après d'une nouvelle fuite; la lecture peut donc être un peu ennuyante parfois alors que la fin est vraiment très très rapide.
Je le conseille en tout cas.

Beautifully written and translated. The most unromantic romanization of Rome.
