When books they have # 5

After a short break, our beautiful challenge " When books they have " returns! I

am especially pleased that I was spoiled this time by reading a little book that I really liked the point of making a sudden heart but before I speak to you, place I invited Henriette, who talks about his reading:

I loved Maybe a love story . Against all odds. I am even tell the truth the first surprise.

Indeed, after reading the previous comments, I really feared the flop. An immature and annoying character, The story begins just as the book ends and leaves you on your hunger is what I feared. But this was not the case. Instead, this book I really enjoyed it.

I will not return as quickly on the story itself, that Virgil plated phone by a woman he does not know, because it is not in the "story" itself is the basis for my interest and the great success of this novel, at least not in the traditional sense. Outwardly, indeed, if one attempts to list the events, it does not happen much in this novel. Some visits to the shrink, a weekend with friends, several cups of tea, two shots son to EDF and a police raid, that's about what is would reduce the narrative scheme. So misery.

But the real adventures, real adventures, routes risky, dangerous, surprising, poignant, that follows the character are all internal. A bit like tropisms of Sarraute, the microphones are revolutions in the consciousness of self and others experienced by Virgil, evolution, the inner journey of being who is the fictional diegesis. How the eternal loser love, unable to pass a bond, some failure before you even begin, without any personal ambition, the kind of undead what Virgil - death from the inside by fear of life in fact - going he manage to transform itself, that is the issue of the novel. We are therefore self-analysis, his inner journey to know, understand, and advance, and this kept me in suspense throughout the story to another.

Because the stakes of this book, in my view, is not whether known or Virgil really going to really know this woman's message on his answering machine. Waiting to be read as having the answer to that is inevitably being disappointed and stay hungry. The title says it all the rest: Maybe a love story. This dealt with this book is the passage of a "never" to "maybe" just how the character opens to the possibility. Not satisfied, not at the event, so to risk, uncertainty finally agreed with a lot of anxiety but also excitement. How Virgil finally gets moving towards life, how he manages to overcome his fears to stop surviving and daring to live, that's what this book tells us. It lets us logically when Virgil finally ready to start living, because then another connection.

This story and this character I was very touched. So a big thank you to those who proposed this novel and gave me this beautiful moment of reading.

As for me, I had a great stroke of heart for The Education of a Fairy of Didier Van Cauwelaert.

"(...) the only time I felt my role was not over, that my fate was not an impasse, other detours could bring me back to my starting point was when the wise and polished look of an unidentified man at first tried to guess who I was based on the contents of my cart. She restored the mystery, extension cords, tried my hand identities, existences possible. But without doubt, again, I was delusional. I a client among a thousand, that's nothing (...) that I changed skin buying things I did not need and that I store in my office, imaginary museum, accessories lives than I ' had not chosen. "

There is everything in this book of love, of course, also in disarray, much of the magic of childhood, sickness, mystery, war, prison, a cabin deep in the woods, a woman in man's name, expectations and misunderstandings, of course, fairies ... and even shopping carts, pigeons and Andre Gide !

The Education of a Fairy is a small, lightweight novel that talks about serious things, it's a childlike world and sometimes dream that recounts the sorrows of life, a little music to charm the ear of the reader but hugs his heart.

We feel that Didier Van Cauwelaert feels great tenderness towards his characters, and this may be why this novel is so sweet even that It tackles difficult topics (the separation, exile, war in Iraq suffering, life difficult in a city ...). So, he forgive an end too soon and we guess that little scent of rose water that tickles our noses to certain pages. We forgive him because this novel is valuable: it reminds us that it is sufficient to inject a little fantasy in our lives for the magic, the wonderful and proves that the child remains in us the outweighs the difficulties of everyday life.

Thanks to that which has chosen, it is a great discovery for me!

Two beautiful readings, therefore, to Harriet and me and copinettes what have they read? What did they think? Will quickly read the notes Sara , Rafafa , Dan and Gio!
