I read for the first time this book there is a year .... it changed my vie.C'est both a story, a philosophical tale, a novel merveilleux.C'est great art and Barrico is an extraordinary artist, who masters the words and gives them an overwhelming depth. I am grown out of this book, with eyes neufs.Je recommend this book to all lovers of reading, to all sentient Men ... you can not not love !!! Barrico is a magician ... be children who listen and watch !!!
