A novel that is far from living up to "Sarah". Certainly the subject is dramatic but unfortunately commonplace. This book looks a little too maudlin these telefilms. The story is a bit slow and I admit I won several reprises.C'est fairly predictable, it is a little bored but we would like so that the end is not quite that at which it is expected that one is pushed to finish it. Therefore no originality nor in how to address this issue in the short or writing a painful but bland narrative.
Touching by since time has snapped up by the various emotions of this woman: dejection, anger ... but I was not unduly affected because I found all a bit repetitive.
