This was a quick one to get through, and despite being a modern classic it doesn't read like a classic. Michel is frank but elusive, claiming to share his story in the most straight-forward manner he is able to while simultaneously dancing around the point. It can be frustrating at times, but overall has the affect of sounding very human.
