I close the book at once and can not help thinking that this is a great novel. The cozy atmosphere permeates the story from start to finish reading. I admit I had a little trouble at first but hang the book has done its work by insinuating fresh in my unconscious as a spell; after having put aside for a few weeks, I could not help but take it back and let me sucked into the story. And since then, I have not left! History casts its shadow on the story with its attendant horrors, cowardice and courages.Il it has moments of laughter, joy and happiness that come illuminate the strange journey of Daniel and Julian, these two young men living a love story almost similar to years of intervalle.Toutefois, my favorite character is Fermin, this "Boudu Saved From Drowning" that accompanies the narrator in his quest, a colorful character, steeped in love and suffering and who will go to overcome its most atrocious fears to defend his savior and protected. It is a book that I will certainly not forget and already I recommend it to everyone around me as essential reading in his library.
