Farrago - Prix Goncourt High Schoolers, 2003 (Paperback)

Customer Review

Farrago is a pure American novel, everything is there: the sympathetic wanderer Huckleberry Finn, the old Black, the sheriff, the mayor, the priest, the mother madam big heart, veterans, Hollywood and especially the wild nature, forests, mountains. We find in this novel anglicisms, clichés in the name and for the characters, plot twists worthy of an American blockbuster. And it's great. We laugh, we cry for more than 400 pages, the emphasis in Homer, the anti-hero.
But where it gets great is that this novel is a novel written in French by a French writer. But you can call him a French novel, because decidedly it is a pure American novel. I am blown away by the creative potential of the writer. Very exciting.
