I do not know anything about the author, I discovered this book at random alleys of librairie.Le title seemed so complicated yet, I still said, "casts a glance." And then I just forgot the rest. This is an exciting book, very interesting and full of small histoires.C'est complementary, it also speaks well of horror, that kisses through the lives of animals and little traditions to why a toast, why candles on the birthday cake .. In short, it's great; So go throw a glance you also ...
