But the strawberry ice cream is going to change the lives of all tragically.
This is the very beginning of my story and he immediately captivated, but i was very quickly a little lost and weary of each episode which was this very short book of about 125 pages.
Jen went out with a feeling more than a little messy mixed décriture, not in style but in construction. We have the impression that the author follows his pen and that he does not know where he goes, the identity of the character changes, the girl becomes a boy who at times even takes the name of the author, Cesar Aira. Aira is lost in unconvincing mazes which we do not see the purpose. Quite a few also believed the main character of the girl / boy who has finally little childish reactions, a double author? a little psychoanalytic abyss layout?
I will have to try to change things from the author to get to me a true opinion.
