La liste de mes envies - Grégoire Delacourt
- In French. First published in 2012 (e-book).
We always lie. I know, for example, that I'm not pretty. I do not have blue eyes in which men contemplate; where they want to drown so for you to dive and save them. I do not have the size of mannequin; I'm kind of pulpy, even coated. The kind that occupies a place and a half. I know all that.
-> A very troubling kind of a book where a mixture of auto derision, hopes and touching wording render the story all too real, yet somehow nuanced, yet somehow tough on the main character.
