4,5/5 This is probably my second favorite book by this author. I really love his writing, how it’s poetic and beautiful but still fluid and I always end up reading his books so quickly. I can never put them down. This book talks about art and how you can use your pain to produce something magical but also use art to heal. This was a beautiful story about life, guilt, creation, and how to survive a trauma. It was really emotional and also very sad. I spent an amazing moment with these characters. But this book triggered me sometimes and I wish I knew the TW so I would expect what happened.
So TW: rape (very explicit scene) depression and suicide.

5/10 c’était vraiment pas exceptionnel, on voit tout de suite où l’auteur veut nous amener, les dialogues sont mal construits sur la forme (les -... dans les conversations pour marquer les silences sont superflus) et le propos manque de nuance d’une certaine manière, ou de délicatesse ? Je n’ai pas non plus été touchée par la plume de David Foekinos.
Es una novela hermosa y exquisitamente escrita. Lo único que tengo para criticar es que la relación de Mathilde y Antoine me resultó apresurada y poco convicente para la trama. La historia de Camille es dura pero conmovedora.
Aussi magnifique que bouleversant. Le rapport continue à la beauté, les relations entre personnages, le réalisme, le drame en font une oeuvre remarquable. David Foenkinos est un auteur qui sait transmettre de réelles émotions, son talent est admirable.
