Is That So Much To Ask?
"I shifted somewhat abruptly. She stood back up behind me and put both hands flat on my shoulders. She said, "I'm going to go. I want you not to move and not to turn around. Please I am begging of you. " I didn't move I didn't want to anyway, because I didn't want her to see me with my eyes swollen and my face all contorted. I waited a while, and then headed to my car." A scene from the story ...

Une belle lecture
J'ai lu ce recueil de nouvelles suite aux critiques lue sur le site et je remercie ceux qui l'ont recommandé. Ils m'ont permis de découvrir un petit bouquin charmant et plein de fraîcheur ainsi qu'une auteure que je ne connaissais pas et dont j'ai beaucoup aimé la plume. On se reconnaît un peu dans ces histoires et c'est amusant de voir le regard que jette l'auteure sur les petits et grands ...

Devastating
What a wonderful, piercing book. It is basically a conversation between the daughter-in-law and her father-in-law, first starting with the pain she is experiencing from the betrayal of his son. Then he unexpectedly begins to open up, revealing a most astonishing relationship that he had in his younger years. It is all the more startling because the author used the "Old Bastard" as the vehicle for ...

Quite Simply an Amazing and Remarkable Book. . .
I don't know how else I can describe this book except to say that I disliked absolutely nothing about it. Except that it had to end. These last few weeks have been enjoyable, and thought provoking, getting to know these strangers as they met and came together, all of them sad and yet hopeful in their own ways. The Parisian setting had its own appeal, but that was not the story. The story ...

Viking Juvenile, 2003

A charming little French book
The main character turns out to be very likable, even though many of the other characters consider him to be a loser of low intelligence. His intelligence simply is not inherently comfortable in the French academic setting. With the help and advice of his grandfather, he is able to work on many of his issues, not just the academic ones, but also those of self-pity and failure to take ...
