This is actually a book as it is written more, but it's a pleasure to plunge into it. It is easy, therefore, to let capture by the quaint charm of this exciting text, which provokes the attention from the first lines and whose place will in turn complicate things or uncover. Served by an excellent translation, to the point that we forget that the original is in English, it takes us into a world and a familiar atmosphere of Dickens novels that take readers and therefore a surprising reality. Suddenly, we are drawn into this Victorian British society there is a century and a half - an eternity - an unequal society, lasts for the poor, with its burdens and its hypocrisy. The plot is remarkable, it must be said. The wicked chisel and polish their appearance of nice and friendly, powerless victims, reveal their apparent weakness in an iron will. Where we remember the value of a given promise and commitment, and what honor. Construction in successive stories illuminate the characters' psychology and, if we understood to four fifths of the book what could be the end, one will be surprised ... short, it is a thriller that does not speak its name , throbbing.
