Le Passage par Justin CRONIN
Les 300 ou 400 premières pages se lisent facilement, on a envie de connaître la suite. Mais quelque part après la page 600, ça se dilue beaucoup trop. La vie dans la colonie isolée, intéressante, n'est pas assez fouillée et on se perd dans les personnages, trop creux. Dommage...
