( )Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. This was advertised as a coming of age novel which it only is in part. The utter selfishness of the protagonist was truly awe inspiring and left me no room for any empathy with him whatsoever. Having used and abused a great number of people including his own family and girl friend, got into serious scrapes with the law both at home and abroad, he is rescued by his family. Sadly however he seems really to have learned nothing by the end. Hence he has not really grown up at all. The writing itself rushes along at a solid pace, but is very uneven insofar as descriptions of place and people are concerned, indeed it feels like these were added in later as an afterthought. Yet somehow this just reinforces the character of the narrator who is only really concerned about himself. I feel like I got caught up in a rushed travel narrative around parts of Europe but the lack of real empathy didn’t really engage me. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
In the summer of 1963, seventeen-year-old Eddie Strull goes off to Europe with a supervised camp group of New York Jewish kids. But Eddie, ever the rebel, has other plans. Eddie wants to live as an adult. A writer. Right now. When they arrive in Paris, the last stop before heading home, Eddie sneaks out of the youth hostel and disappears into the bohemian labyrinth of the Left Bank. There he encounters a colorful array of artists, writers, actors, and one extraordinary prostitute, who draws him into a risky adventure. Ultimately, he becomes a wanted man. Instant adulthood turns out to be much more than Eddie bargained for. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
