Pierre Desproges - WOMEN WHO FALL

A diamond of social cruelty. A pure laugh.

Back from holiday in Spain (I know that I do not care but it makes me happy) I wanted, first and foremost, to deliver this pure moment of happiness.
Comedian
Desproges is known by everyone for his famous radio Tribunal indictments Flagrants Crazy alongside Luis Rego. Before being taken away too soon by cancer by storm, the most cynical of brilliant minds, the finest detective satire burlesque gave us a detective novel. Yes, officer. The evocative title to boot.

Women are decimated in a small village. The investigation is in full swing.

The pitch is well done. It is difficult to summarize Desproges. As far as the comment elsewhere. It remains only to give way. Whether we like it or not humor - Dark, cynical, caustic, borderline, sardonic - no one can deny the power of his words, the power of his images.

For those who do not know, and exceptionally like Gael, I will deliver the opening pages, the incipit for the purists, this pearl:

"Adeline Serpillon belonged to the overwhelming that most mortals barely assassinate.
She had no money, no love, no hatred, no attractions. His political beliefs led him to shout down gently increases in gas prices, but rarely beyond. She was of medium intensity with more than a common grave, and a full banality of nougat Montelimar. Apart from the soft gray cat who was sleeping on his bed, no one turned it on, much less below. For forty years, she was shrinking with little steps behind the counter of polished wood of his haberdashery that smelled of honey and fresh sawdust, without anyone ever take her in the act of good or bad mood. (...)
Thus it seemed unlikely everyone Serpillon Adeline died one day murdered.
However, on 9 May, the bus driver Nontron, who indulged his son and common buttons, found on the floor sewing in her display. Despite the large carving knife which had been bled white by punching plexus to the navel, and stood there in his belly sad, she kept in the death of the air con saleswomen measuring the elastic pants. "

A great moment of jubilation.

Why Not To Rinse Or Drink After Listerine

Tom Wolfe - ME, CHARLOTTE SIMMONS

When, laboriously, a success story must get out of the cocoon of mediocrity an incorrigible scribbler ...

Tom Wolfe is first - and hopefully , finally - a journalist. Whoever goes well, through its success across the Atlantic, the inventor of New Journalism (the same as the old but certainly longer "chébran" or something of that ilk).
Okay, easy caricature. But I do not feel right. Why? Because I went after those pesky thousand pages of literary poverty!

First pitch. Charlotte Simmons is a small hick stuck, intellectual pride of his high school mountain, who won his ticket to Dupont, the most prestigious university in the country. So it expects to penetrate the inner sanctum of culture and knowledge, there are other breast and penetrations that will program the den of debauchery and vulgarity among the gothic walls of buildings grouses.
Tom Wolfe wants a portrait of contemporary American student life. And there certainly managed well, the trip is indeed surprising. Number of top experts have praised its realism, even naturalism should we say.

It is imperative to emphasize the quality of the bottom of the story. We discover a world of appearances which collapses the omerta of the campus that fall and the worst truths that are spread out before us, the public square. The characters are well drawn too. They are incredibly endearing, despite the endless vapidity of the poor heroine, sometimes jovial maid, sometimes shameless depressed.

But deuce, it's all poorly written! Certainly concede that the author employs the "real" language of the young United States, an emphasis that we know before we even start reading. But dozens of "fuck" and its variations by pages are not the worst. You get used. No, the Apocalypse is in use absolutely barbaric, even grotesque, punctuation! In an attempt to make us "hear" the accent, the punctuation is regularly reversed, resulting in fatigue tremendously. Worse, the author never learned to use an ellipsis. It bombards us, do not use that to stop along the way sentences to simply move more easily in the next paragraph! Point of rhythm, that's useful!

I barely dare mention the poverty of his images. Once it finds one that works, all happy, and serves it pours for three or four sentences, chewed and chewed, substantive value on about better.
pity for the characters! Read this book will eventually end up in my opinion a way to rescue people, or at least share their plight. I felt the spirit of a pilgrim helping to raise their poor parent, this cross that masked their profound quality.

Paradoxical. I do not know whether to recommend this book. But I do not recommend it either.

Can A Hernia Make Your Balls Hurt

Armistead Maupin - A VOICE IN THE NIGHT

And if love had neither age, nor head, nor any other reality than that which holds us to the heart?

It took me a year to come to immerse myself in a book of Maupin, again. Not that the author disappointed me - unthinkable! The Chronicles of San Francisco were of such quality at the checkout of my "masterpiece" favorite that disappointment had come to me whisper sweet fear. And if out of his famous Californian of the 80 chronic, post-hippies and joyously crazy at a time when the Internet was just a dream AIDS is an urban legend, this author does not lecture became a scribbler on return, an old man who refused to grow old, become so daring libidinous.

Well no, we are reassured, Maupin is great! I never really doubted, it is good sometimes to concoct small fears to rekindle a flame that will consume us as surely as the sun shines on this beautiful summer.

Gabriel No one is a celebrity, a successful author of a soap opera and many bestsellers. But at his advanced age, life is not yet what it was. His marriage broke. Ten years since he Jess lives with a beautiful male much younger than he took in a new spirit, a second youth who moves away from the big house with a husband and an old sick dog in the garden, to new adventures mornings and leather piercings. Gabriel knows he can not rebuild his life. So he clings to his end of the couple as to his sudden disillusionment creative: the page is definitely white. This is a young boy of thirteen, Pete, who head out of water. In the manuscript written by a young boy wounded by life, Gabriel will discover the horrors that would previously have imagined. But There is also the power of a kid now very sick and in pain of love, healthy, protective: paternal. Their conversations become more frequent, the thousands of miles separating them make sense Pete is he really? Is it not an invention of his enigmatic adoptive mother? Gabriel is the only one to believe and understand that boy, or only to get caught up in the end in a perverse set of tracks?

The number of questions raised by this masterpiece of the master of gay literature equal the intelligence of his answers or it leads us to build. Can you blame him for not giving any clear from the many springs of his plot? Somehow lose the drive on the last chapters? No, of course. Because beyond a story, this is for everyone to find their own answers, to confront his demons and his convictions to the vicissitudes of the human world.

All loves are surveyed here: the filial and paternal lack of love, love of others as self-love, disillusionment sexual too - the author has matured incredibly since the Chronicles. In a San Francisco has lost its splendor and stored some of his many balls faceted, it is in the light of a new projector that Maupin takes us into life, in the head, men. Simply.

Is Drinking Mineral Water Dangerous When Pregnat

Donna Tartt - THE MASTER OF ILLUSIONS

ink distilled from the scalpel: Anatomy of the Spirit, the need for the unthinkable.

My passion for contemporary American literature is particularly strong in the summer time. Sun, sand, waves that scour the illusions, corrosion masks ... Summer lends itself to readings Automne or winter would not have allowed to try, they are cautious, heavy rains from October to frost in March, only scholars have their place on my bedside student.
month of August bringing with him any bad conscience - why a new novel while those treated colossal legal theory have been waiting for centuries under a pile of dust? - I started here in this novel, unearthed by the merest chance. A catchy title, a fourth cover upon presentable for once.

Aside: when the house will decide Folio does understand that some lines taken at random, as brilliant as they were, placed behind a book unknown alarm nobody new readers to their pages that are foreign?

Enough digressions: Donna Tartt is a brilliant pen. That is said, bluntly. And this may suffice for me to jump on the book. Not you? Well, then I insist.
Lord of Illusions presents a bunch of students a few specific campus of Hampden, Vermont. They have this peculiarity that they are seven followers of a single teacher in charge of the drive towards a degree in Ancient Greek. Seven students, a teacher, an office. The story is narrated by Richard, a brave Californian innocent, immaculate in white, to whom it will take forever to understand that its surrounding facades are just straw, a heap of illusions.
Who takes the reins? Julian, the tutor a little strange - you can not help but think of Robin Williams in The Dead Poets Society. Henry, the enigmatic head of the group, rich, generous but impenetrable? Francis, good shoulder on which each sits a little? Charles and Camilla, twins whose beauty is unparalleled and impeccable manners? Bunny, the bantering that all dunce world likes it anyway?

Admittedly, the exhibition is a bit long. Richard, the narrator a candid, arrived on campus in the normal course before joining this group. A comprehensive study of climate and indigenous habits gives us a comparison provided very California / Vermont. And the characters emerge. With precision but also with some confusion. Seven protagonists is a lot. And a multitude of recurring minor characters - we must all these people to fill seven hundred pages. Do not expect that stylistic analysis means schematically as "the modifying element" the initial situation before a very good quarter of the book. And locate them among the few portraits before that time be tough but worth it hang: the plot is revealed exciting, breathless. Donna Tartt

decrypts with unparalleled attention to detail the workings of crime - which, do not count on me to tell you! The unspeakable becomes necessary, the unthinkable is unavoidable, impregnable. And all this practically in real time, within seven points of view and at least through the eyes of a narrator irreproachable initially neutral, perfectly innocent, a bit manipulated, chouille an idiot on the edges.

is a masterpiece whose film adaptation, scheduled for a moment, waiting. A great moment of reading, a modern epic long matured and intelligent - the author has taken ten years to write. Do not put all to read.

Jostein Gaarder - THE DAUGHTER OF DIRECTOR OF CIRQUE

And yet ...

It's always so strange to be disappointed by an author that was believed to have. Jostein Gaarder is beyond the pale of my favorite writers. He knows his words soak in the humor and poetry, fashions characters affirmed in the heart of a world without compromise mad inventiveness. Travel which he invites us can not be lived without him. It thus paves roads that none had dared to imagine before him.

But sometimes the idea is good splash. I have used this expression in these pages for others. Yes, like Werber and his Butterfly deadly dull, yes, as Dan Brown's book Deception and missed ... it happens to them too. Do not blame them too.

The idea behind this book is brilliant though. Gaarder tells us the adventures of a spider. In fact animal with eight legs, a hero whose weapon is an overflowing imagination without limits. It invents stories with a shovel, synopses in industrial quantities. And why not, therefore, to profess? The spider is the inexhaustible source of inspiration for writers made, missed or that become, themselves, have enough. And he sells his stories he will not write. And he created a web of links for, but the subtle mesh increasingly tight. For each client thinks is the only one to benefit from this valuable boost ...

enticing. And yet ... The author will feel compelled to lead his hero in a romance melodrama redolent liberated sexuality, post-hippie on the back, all without any obligation. It's overrated, childish and at times nauseating. So? The end we obvious hundred pages too soon. All this is finely stitched cable construction. There is more fishy, there is whale under gravel in this book! Read

for form and pen, for ideas that burst (as many synopses of stories that will never be told so?). Ends as fast as it begins to close again with a sigh, a large sigh.

Gilles Leroy - GROWING

contemporary writing to the assault of the novel

I was not expecting to read a novel and also move away from him. I chose a site on the institutional famous whose name recalls a river of South America (...?) And moved its members to compile lists of their books thematic favorites. Convinced by the other titles in this list that Maupin had many, I started on "Growing Up" by Gilles Leroy what I did not know. Ouch.

I closed that book exasperated and I could only wish at this moment: the fall sharply. Who am I to allow me that? Nobody is precisely the interest of the Internet: everything is permitted at all. But it's not as simple. History is an appalling banality: adolescence, innocence, with, finding a parallel sexuality, and the bourgeois urbanites who openly despise their hick cousins because they are a mirror which reflects the annoying ... Marriages and factories that close and serious illness. In short, the novel of the 90s. Nothing more, nothing less. But the banality stands, say.

same concern for writing. We can not say that Gilles Leroy write badly. His writing is powerful, incredibly rhythmic, he loves the gradations and metonymy improbable way the deliciously oxymoronic. But guess what: nothing moves me. I never managed to get a page. I swam next to the story of this writing the endless sentences, punctuation incomprehensible. It took me 80 pages to understand who was who among the poor ... three characters who are ultimately nothing more than the husband, wife, son. Tadam. But it was so elliptical and go for it I you put a little metaphor for it, and go ahead for circumlocution and there. And I'm talking to you the main characters and at the same time I tell you what he thinks, all this for anything else happens with someone who has a nickname but no one knows who he is. Argh.

The worst were in the bottom brackets. Yes, hooks in which the author speaks to us in an aside. Thus we learn that such a place we slid his fingers on the keyboard and he typed a word instead of another and attempts to understand this "slip of fingers." Or it tells us what he has failed to write but never write not.

There. Not very interesting. Not very pretty. No poetry for two cents. Not informative. Even his contempt for the campaign is incredibly banal and ultimately not even funny. It's not for lack of spread in the pages and pages ...

Pearl case, "whereas the hen is a trivial and stupid animal"

I can not resist you reproduce the extract from a decision that must be the famous orator of the Court of Appeal of Riom (he was to chair) and relaxes all the lecture halls of the first year of law school. At the time to savor the end of my degree, the desire to share what I remember biting itch.

Here's the story: in the hamlet owned La Rochette the village of sallede (63), a neighborhood conflict pitted the Mr. Rougier its neighbors, spouses Roche, owner of a poultry house that the first thought too close, too noisy and too smelly. Seized of the dispute, the court gave Clermont-Ferrand with the complainants and ordered the destruction of the house troublemaker. Furious, the husband Roche has appealed the court decision to the Court of Appeal of Riom, which gave them reason, in flowery terms:

"Whereas the chicken is an animal trivial and stupid to the point that no one has yet managed to draw, not even a Chinese circus, that his neighborhood has many of silence, a few soft clucks and cackles that range from joyful (laying an egg) in serene (tasting of a worm) through the panic (for a fox), that this peaceful neighborhood n has never bothered those who for other reasons, feed on anger against the owners of such fowl, the court will not consider the vessel the seaman unwelcome, flour the baker, the head of the violin orchestra, and an inhabitant of the chicken place called La Rochette sallede village (402 people) in the Puy de Dome.
For these reasons: acting publicly and contradictorily, reversed the ruling, dismissing the complainant of its actions and Rougier condemns the expense ... "

Isabelle Prevost-Desprez - THE SECRET OF 'ARCADIA

The suspense thriller, the accuracy of testimony, under the headlines.

Isabelle Prevost-Desprez is magistrate. She made a detour through the brigade's financial Palais de Justice in Paris, As part of its history, before being appointed Vice-President of the Tribunal de Grande Instance of Nanterre. In his years as a judge instruction, the judge certainly does not keep good memories. Pressures, threats, and constant attention that doubt. Who is with you, which is cons. When nothing is as simple as that JT Pujadas.

If you thought everything about the judicial machine, if you believed the master role and challenges of the office of judge, if after a parade of mediocre media you thought it was the character The most powerful person in France, dive into this book. The author makes us feel, viscerally, all this trouble, all the tension that chair every day at his office. Conduct an investigation because is playing every second son tightrope on several multiple razors. The prosecutor on the one hand, the judicial police of the other, his colleagues, the court, witnesses, indicted.

Julie Cruze, heroin, is primarily a woman who fights for his position of judge and her role as mother, wife, too. She fights for justice when his family would ask him to forget a little. Traditional chorus? No. This is not just the life story of an addict's job. It's a real dive into the arcane surgical political, judicial and financial an all-romanticized Paris.

This book is not a "key book", that is to say one of those books that tell the story of a famous case of changing the names. Nothing to see. And all the same: the author asserts that all is nothing less than likely. If the plot and characters are pure fiction, the goal was to stay in the field of completely plausible. This is in no political fiction. It is almost closer to a self-fiction autobiographical when no about it. It is obvious that the feelings experienced by the magistrate of the novel, her difficulties in reconciling his high office and all the love his own, are not as pure intellectual works.

is a great heart for helping this novel who is blamed poor literary quality. Wrong. Certainly we discover a passion for the author sayings, many of whom are well outdated, but it is characteristic of a good lawyer. Some expressions are a bit outdated, sweet, but the work is not adversely affected. The suspense is maintained until the last page. It does not close the book on the orders of sleep.

The copy I have ever read was dedicated by Author (alas not for me but whatever). I give you this handwritten sentence that summarizes what I am trying to argue since the beginning of this post:

"The battle, life, death, a judge, a woman before everything. "

Susanna Clarke - Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

The Fantastic and Literature: The English novel in the state ...

It would have taken me two weeks to overcome the 860 pages writing tight hit the pavement. Either the same time as taken me two thousand pages in six volumes combined "Chronicles of San Francisco de Maupin (a must for the summer by the way). Much fun? I do not know. Something at the very least extremely different? This is without doubt.

In the early years of the nineteenth century, a British socialized, player crazy fan of the magic that had made all the glory of his country until four centuries earlier before disappearing into disuse - and being rather than explored in theory - will decide to change history. He wants to make its letters of nobility to magic by delivering into force in England. This Mr Norrell, which will first be everything to ensure the only magician of the country practitioner before meeting Jonathan Strange, his exact opposite in every way, also very talented in the same discipline. It will take to the student before being doubled by it, and it is in confrontation that their story will turn.

It is miles away from Harry Potter and yet it seems necessary to clarify. Nothing expected, no foregone conclusion. Here the magicians take their art to the study of dusty old manuscripts. They are experienced in solitude, and want only one thing: helping the government in its mission to protect the nation. The enemy is not a ghost but sticky Napoleon Bonaparte, the French conqueror threatens the island kingdom. Item wands and brushes to play football in the air but the spells in Latin to inform the general of the royal army.

The purpose is fantastic, its treatment could not be more realistic, even naturalistic (in nearly nine hundred pages, there are some pitfalls that we will not escape but they give the work his small craft stamp and "first novel "). After a while we said nothing more likely. We would sometimes rebuke to the characters remain in their spells and curses so down to earth, conventional plausible. Here of enchanted kingdom. Point Edenic dream. It is through a new way of thinking about the world, politics, human relations and the relation of man to the world that Susanna Clarke invites us into its pages.

And this is why Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell is not to classify as fantasy or science fiction for some time but held a prominent place in the top ranks of literature Contemporary. A great discovery. A magical journey that begins with the "packaging" chosen by the publisher to carry out without delay.

Lauren Weisberger - THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA

funny and cool, but ... an epic surface greatly performed!

Obviously I saw the movie. It amused me, what is needed. Like Meryl Streep, so I can forgive him anything. And now, a few months later, here it gives me the book. Good. How to respond to these six hundred page views on the big screen? And there I was like a reflex that I could describe as "Bridget Jonessien. I read this newspaper whose crusty humor carried me to tears of laughter, where the film which had resulted in me deeply disappointed. So here I am about to do the opposite with "The Devil Wears Prada."

And what a surprise! Again the adaptation was very rough and finally far enough pages of the novel. Much funnier, much more complex and more accurate as well. Less Machiavellian bottom. But there Andrea discovers more spiritual, much more Tortured by his own side to quit all the horror he felt the world of fashion. Lauren Weisberger, author, invites us to a methodical and subtle exploration of the cruelty installed by the praying mantis Prestly Miranda. This is not a giant icicle balance alternately cruel arms stitched to spread best-of programs such as New Star. She is a woman from nothing and reached the summit. This is not a manipulative sadist but only a temperamental woman who nobody ever dared to say "crap".

This novel remains an extremely pleasant accessory to accompany a beach towel and a tube of sunscreen. Many self-mockery in the description of an illusory perfection that person will never reach.

For those who had hitherto escaped the pitch:
Prestly Miranda is the editor of Runway, the fashion magazine that makes the rain and fine weather in this area throughout the world. It is a terrible tyrant before whom vixen everyone is petrified of scary. Andrea Sachs, fresh out of college, finds himself recruited by chance by the magazine and becomes the personal assistant to Miranda. This book recounts his ordeal at It starts at one year.

The parallel must be drawn: the author was the personal assistant to Anna Wintour, patroness of Vogue magazine in New York, said to be the high priestess of the fashion world and the most tyrannical employer that it is (but in the real world).

How Do You Get Chandelier In Millsberry

And one more acquisition ...

I would not claim to do an analysis like Techcrunch, but I admit that the announcement of the acquisition of Feedburner by Google makes me react.
past few months, there is more than that. Acquisitions. Constantly. Large bought with a vengeance. Were consolidated, and especially we deprive the competitor of good service (which raised the stakes).
So for now, Microsoft has not yet succeeded in buying Yahoo, but just to know that it was in the pipes the last few weeks is a little crazy.
Who's next? Ebay? Soon there will be more than two giants who make war. And small who seek to redeem as soon as possible. Then, of course, nothing is final, but I do not see what could upset this scenario. What happen outsider to shake Microsoft and Google? And would have enough nerve to refuse a bid ...
I'm not convinced it's a good thing in the end. Of course, everyone does not aim to finish on the stock market, and be redeemed by a great outcome is a more than respectable. But where are the services purchased? Often they have not moved for months. And for the user (because everyone does not create its startup), it means that there is always more pub, insidiously crept into every corner of the web.

So who is next?

Bruneau Perreau - HOMOSEXUALITY (collection of keys and texts)

A collection well compulsive solid foundation for a necessary reflection.

This is not really a test but rather a document. And if it happened to me yet to comment on this kind of small works that I like very much, start with this one is particularly pleasant. Indeed, textbooks, provided they are carefully selected and rigorously presented and linked, are a boon for anyone who wants learn and hard to endure the non-writing of journalists and other hacks in the vulgar verb ( and analysis absent or coarser!).

short, this book published by Flammarion in his collection is Librio of these high-quality documents on subjects as common as overrated and yet still call for a dialogue need to live together, ever more urgent to demolish prejudices, to change attitudes, bring the Neanderthals out of his cave a bit dirty. We owe this quality to the author, Bruno Perreau, Senior Lecturer in the IEP of the prestigious Rue Saint Guillaume (Science-Po Paris) and who devoted his thesis and his academic career studying homosexuality in history political and legal. It condenses and in these few pages all the tracks needed to build the foundations for a reflective discussion may allow a change of mentality: history, law, sociology, psychology, France, the world ... No point of view is left out, whether pleasant or downright violent.

Submissions by Bruno Perreau are also richly varied and selected from Plato to Freud, Foucault to Himmler, Robert Badinter to Jeremy Bentham, Pontus Thyard of Saint Thomas Aquinas ... They are portraying various lighting cultural, legal, philosophical as vast rewarding. For once, a compulsive, if booklet is of such quality ...

Paul Auster - CITY OF GLASS (The New York Trilogy 1) Bernard Werber

The complexity of the Trilogy ...

I love Paul Auster ... I think I have written often enough (how does it too?) On these pages. But I do know that in recent months and I have discussed his work in complete disorder. And if I've already expressed that I was far more adept than his recent work as the first album (everything is relative and everything is still a very high quality), it was one day that I attack the City of Glass Auster.

I would not say anything new about the history, the author allows himself to take a private detective to get stuck in a mental gear that will result in a spiral winding and unpredictable. To the ends. As usual with Auster.

The author puts in its pages that called Sibylline different reading levels. Auster does it all the time. But here, I do not know if it is the density of the narrative, the concentration of words and situations that cause them, the levels are difficult to penetrate. Catchy, reflective, cathartic why not, but he should read this novel a good ten times after a thorough study of the literary work austerienne to penetrate all mysteries. The work has been done elsewhere. All I can say my level is how much I still enjoyed this work.

But it is a work in progress "of the human soul. A work voluntarily unfinished (I'm not talking about history, I understood that there was a trilogy!). The interior construction of characters that always inimitable talent Auster is partly left to the discretion of a player who will be able to place what they need for its understanding, to advance personally. It is an open book, a "red book" left to our liberty, our inner feather to our needs.

- THE ULTIMATE SECRET

The complexity and vicissitudes of the mind (biological) human.

Ah! An author can afford to lead the reader on trips that did not even suspect imaginable before opening the first pages of the new opus of the master. Master of science fiction in the true sense of the genre, it will in the 90's to the fantastic pedigree at a time when literature has forgotten the genius of Orwell and Kafka only suction often than pale flirtations campaign or "docudrama" fictionalized , concealing the names of these politicians that we recognize a little because the anagram used to name the character is so subtle that a deep thought of "pretending" still running in New Star.

So after traveling underground from these little creatures that once repelled and now we are forcing our respect after travel among the dead, then the angels, and before us to the heart of the school of the gods, Bernard Werber, in a more human we were invited to travel to the heart of ourselves in his wonderful book of travel. It extends the intimate epic in greater detail. And we are witnessing the return of science embedded in the soul of Werber - it is a science journalist before being a writer, unless it be the opposite now! The Ultimate Secret takes us to the heart of the workings of this marvelous machinery that constitutes the human brain, with its shadows, its fogs and its network of synapses indecipherable. From a hospital bed where research advances so fast that it can reveal the ultimate secret of our cerebral, and an insane asylum located on the islands of Lerins, in front of Cannes, the mechanisms of our cortex occur and become confused before our eyes.

Very didactic, it's the talent that makes us dream Werber, traveling, sharing, allows us to escape while having the sensation of watching an old episode of the excellent program "is not rocket science." You learn so much about the human brain and its functioning or its uncertainty as the difficulty in retaining our most !

is a beautiful way, entertaining and informative. Werber is a very good, better than the new series on the gods. The Ultimate Secret is in the heart of the study period the man and his internal and social behaviors among Werber (Book of Travel, Ultimate Secret, Our friends in humans). An interesting series.

Jonathan Coe - The Dwarves of Death

The thriller, night and the musical power.

Jonathan Coe gratifies us always of what is certainly a large part of his talent, his leg, at least the hook number of readers to his writing so special: the construction of his characters. It shapes as a person immersed in a world different characters in each novel, and so rooted in him. Gregory Dudden in "The House of Sleep" is a good example, better still with William that we find here.

William is a musician, pianist passionate top of his twenty-three spring has invested in London as he could, abandoning his campaign in the hope of belonging to a small rock band that pierce maybe someday. He lives with roommates in a young woman he knows very little and he meets one hour every three weeks at most. He lives there in the HLM London, away from even the subway, but he lives there to play. He plays the piano like others breathe, out of need. A young man who more and more mundane work in a store. His normal life is turned upside down when he is witness to a murder committed under his eyes by two dwarfs.

And it is this reversal that Jonathan Coe opens his story. His whole approach, built around the musical structure, will be a huge step backwards by William on itself to understand what led him here and bring up its final outcome. In this construction of the book is fairly common, except the following chapters the different movements of a piece.

I do not like it as much as "The House of Sleep", although he is very honorable to me and he held me awake late into the night. I have not found the constructive genius I expected from this author. This novel, thriller musical entertainment is still a good bill and writing slender, smooth, clean, always pleasant.

No, I am not party to retire on a yacht. I rather put my silence on account of the work (it is always class, that excuse!)
As you all understand, Kappa has his own blog, and the first beta version will come soon. What puts a little pressure.
And the arrival of Vincent has accelerated the pace, which is good for Kappa, but not for my sleep ;-)

Still, today I answered an interview on the blog Kappa, in which I has a little more. I also soon publish an article that I had quite nice in a local business newspaper, in the section leaders of tomorrow (class, no?)

Here to give you some news.

How Do You Know If A Scorpio Like You?

Bernard Werber - THE BUTTERFLY STAR

In ease to banalities: the art of writing with her feet.

Whether it is disappointing to read the latest published one of his favorite authors and can not deprive himself of the idea, through the pages, he must have a balance of tax pay higher than expected. Bernard Werber teaches us with this little album art of the banal, the commonplace, the ease by taking exactly the same themes, the same analysis and the same springs that drama Empire of the Angels and his Trilogy of Gods (the Volume 3 is finally out there or is it a flop at this point that the trilogy can be summed up two volumes?).

Butterfly Star is a project idea and a good living. This is where the bottom lies. If any book can be summarized in Werber's good news, that there should be an AFP dispatch. Two people meet in a car accident, their lives rock. And they find themselves on a crazy project, "the last hope is the leak, leave this Earth rotten to recreate a new humanity, clean and healthy on another planet, 1000 years of travel of the Earth. Why not.
The author imagines a fabulist vessel capable of transporting 144,000 people so as to recreate a closed world with its vegetation, its humanity. This preserves humanity, all clean and sterilized, will arrive on the new planet after ten generations.
but guess what, they are men. Even if we chose the best, peace, the purest in the beginning, they will pervert it is in their nature (nature damn, oh shucks, it's too balo!). And finally Werber us redo the entire history of mankind in its great Twingo space. Frankly it's ridiculous. Left to invent a project as insane and move super fast on the technical details to enable assuming it succeeds, as do something a little new. If we dwell on it for the same cycles of war and peace as we know it here, why bother?

None. Sure. Werber is that is a deep deterministic. We can do nothing for this human nature predestined to fail. She carries its limitation, it is his loss in his genes. Besides, he does not doubt for one of its main characters (yeah, in 1000 years they change often!) That human wars are occurring as the natural regulation of our overcrowding.

The worst is the end. If you do not want not know, skip this paragraph. If you want suspense, rewrite history because of all the ways there are not any! In the end, they are more than a couple and landed on another planet inhabited by dinosaurs ...! Wow! And what happens? Woman dies, then recreated a man from one of his ribs! Re-Wow! And as she would later takes the leaf, every time he tells the story of their arrival on this planet it will include everything wrong: for Adrian, she hears Adam, Eve Eva intends to include it Elith Lilith, for it includes Satine Satan ... You see where I go like this? And yes, he dared. Any Christian dogma about the origin of humanity becomes a dark farce orchestrated by a teen hard of hearing which includes half of what he says! Moreover, the idea made me smile. But frankly. All for it. 244 pages for that.

There's sometimes we really wonder: why?
