The small Communist who never smiled (Paperback)

Customer Review

It's true that she had a side Buster Keaton, "the man who never smiled." The slender and muscular body, able to propel themselves through the air like a Molotov cocktail, and bounce back imperturbably sovereign. Nadia Comaneci has revolutionized the world of gymnastics, to 14 years, the Olympic Games in 1976. The under 40 can hardly remember. Lola Lafon has just 40 years. And she remembers it as if it were. Evidence that the transmission goes through mysterious channels that connect son invisible beings. Magnesia dust fell from the hands of the gymnast prodigy, had to fly to his little girl 3 years reads like a magic powder. Otherwise, how could she write a novel as acrobatic, also inside, as close sensations of Romanian champion? Lola Lafon found his subject, his double, his mirror, and the shock of this encounter springs an impressive mastery of text and poetry, like Comaneci acrobatic numbers. This type of match is the secret of the success of the book. Far from the biopic to the US, the story takes risks, dare imaginary asides between the novelist and athlete, rises into the air with hallucinatory descriptions of sporting prowess, connects the most personal and most literary figures just, embraces the totality of a person extraordinary, with an economy of means and a striking sense of balance.

Nadia Comaneci, his great soul sister, his silent fellow, his model of strength and fragility, Lola Lafon restores all ambivalence. Both motor and victim, subject and object, the athlete ahead, again and again, "carnivorous plant hazards that must feed her [...], it nibbles the impossible, ranks him aside to make way for Then, still later. "Now it happened one day that is after a large sinkhole. She who never fell sank into anonymity after being shredded by those who carried it to the skies. The strength of Lola Lafon is to introduce imperceptible holes in his story, superimposing them disappearance of areas, transparent, empty. She staggers slowly behind his muse, "somnambulist of his own childhood," and the book splits the mist of the forfeiture with exemplary modesty and soundness. A destiny emerges, terribly moving, that of a teenager that would freeze in innocence. But Lola Lafon keeps repeating, Nadia Comaneci was a little squirrel, unable to keep still. Written like a scroll that is happening under the counter, a full strength rant hidden meanings, La Petite Communist who never smiled puts beside the communist dictatorship of yesterday and the capitalist asphyxiation today denounced the absurdity of leaving prison for another: Before, people had "constantly afraid, yes, afraid we may hear the forbidden things, today, we can all say, congratulations, only nobody hears us. "

Lola Lafon questions the silence, suggests the muffled cries of those who have swapped a gag order against another. His word is gold, and proves that untied languages ​​always triumph, they trace their letters in the air, the tips of the toes, or on paper, loving freedom.
