Author unknown to me, and I loved it.

I had never heard of Sacha Isain, and that's just by chance, over the mighty Amazon motors that automatically offer a particular reading that I let myself be tempted.
I'll hasten to buy the other works of Sacha Isain.
A plot that share in a sense, to evolve fully in the book. Unable at first to imagine the end.
In trying to learn about this author, I learned that he was Russian, spoke several languages, had lived in Paris and taken up residence in Belgium. In this book, the main character (Seva) speaks broken French. The transcript of that French is already sweet.
The character endearing, plausible premises.
Of course, it's not a Goncourt prize. But a book for everyone. That many will enjoy.
I can highly recommend it.
Sacha thank you Isain
