Joseph Kessel has the talent to know very quickly invite the reader into the story it tells. The style and the abruptness with which he immerses the reader, city, french, like the journalist in the Serengeti Park (Kenya) sets the stage for psychological openness to the discovery of an extra-ordinary friendship of a young girl (Patricia, 10 years) with the Lion "King". Surprises, passions, complex feelings when they are received at first gave way to real friendship for the heroes of the book, deepening our relationship.
A book of emotions as knows so well write Joseph Kessel.
