alte aspettative perché è dell’autore di uno dei miei libri preferiti… rispettate? si dai, storia che tiene un po’ sulle spine e un finale che pian piano si intuisce nella storia ma di cui solo alla fine si ha la (quasi) conferma perché non è mai del tutto esplicitato. Mi piace questa “incertezza” in cui ti lascia Carrere

This is so dark I'm kinda grossed out but intrigued and as always Carrére has such a clean writing style he can tell any story

Qui vediamo Carrère che mostra come sia possibile far aumentare la tensione di pagina in pagina. 
Sappiamo che qualcosa di grave accadrà, anche se non sappiamo il come e il quando.

Ottimamente scritto, ma forse mi è sfuggito precisamente cosa stia cercando di raccontare Carrère: il racconto di un momento traumatico? La perdita dell’innocenza? 
L’opera è un continuo crescendo di tensione, inquietudine e ansia che però nel finale non esplode veramente, rimandando un po’ in sospeso in un non detto che da un lato rende il tutto più inquietante, dall’altro non soddisfa pienamente.

Il primo di Carrere che non mi convince.
La scrittura però merita.

Troublant et délicat, ce livre traite des sujets sombres de manière poétique. Le style d'écriture m'a vraiment plu, mais les thèmes abordés ne sont pas mes préférés.
