Original sans être révolutionnaire. On s'attache à cet homme qui nous raconte les bonheurs et malheurs que subit son corps de ses 13 ans à ses 87. Une forme de récit de vie orignale, qui apporte quelques réflexions sur la vie qui sont intéressantes. Le tout demeure cependant très léger. Une découverte intéressante!
non efficace fino in fondo, ma a tratti è divertente. Se ti piace Pennac leggilo
This author clearly thinks out of the box. A body journal, what a great idea! Prior to starting this I was afraid that it would quickly become boring that is because I forgot how much everything we live is related to our bodies. Our hurts and pains, our particularities.
The journal doesn't only talk about the narrator himself, we learn about his family, his doctors and friends through what happens to their bodies as well.
The narrator has this quirky, childlike quality: he is always making experiences with himself. It seems as though he never stops to analyse and discover his body. It reminded me that my body isn't per say, who I am. So perhaps it could be a particularly good book to read when you are young and not quite yet acquainted with your carnal envelope, or for anyone who is at war with themselves, to learn to see every part of them with new eyes.
Altogether it is an interesting little book, touching at times, with strong time references and ingeniously written.
Sidenote//spoiler-ish: another gay character down. Another white male author that still thinks it's okay to casually use the word "nigger".

Ah Daniel, Cher Daniel!
Journal d'un corps est un journal comme je n'en ais jamais lu. Daniel Pennac a le chic pour vous concocter des récits si inattendus!
C'est intéressant, singulier. On parle tant du rapport au corps qu'a la gente féminine avec son corps, qu'on oublie que le sexe opposé aussi en a une.
On se laisse facilement emporter par cette écriture fluide, poétique, légère mais qui aborde des sujets on ne peu plus sérieux! Je me suis attaché si fortement avec le narrateur que quand il a fallu clore la dernière page, mon corps n'a pas voulu. C'était si étrange de vivre toutes ses sensations, car oui nous les vivons aussi tant les descriptions sont juste sans jamais trop en faire.
J'ai ri, j'ai pleuré, j'ai souri, j'ai été ému, agacé, irrité, écœuré... Que sais-je encore. Ce livre aura toujours une place spécial car je ne l'associe pas seulement à mon esprit mais aussi mon corps.
Je regrette tant de l'avoir finit mais je suis si heureuse de l'avoir lu.

It feels strange to read someone's diary.
It does not have description of planetary events. It describes changes outside through personal changes. It also has multiple little personal secrets that make it even more personal and believable.
I couldn't finish the book, I didn't want them all to die.
