2L'ombre du vent: un roman qui m'a laissé une impression de rêve et de cauchemar en même temps. Le Cimetière des livres oubliés, et le livre que le héros y choisi, auront un impact décisif dans la vie du jeune héro. On en apprend aussi beaucoup sur l'histoire moderne de l'Espagne. Un livre à lire.
This book left me with an after-taste of dream and nightmare at the same time. The cimetry of forgotten books, and the book that the hero picks up there, will have a strong impact on the young hero's life. It is also a book that taught me a lot about the recent history of Spain. A must read.

La vérité sur l'affaire Harry Québert et Le livre des Baltimore: je mets ces deux livres ensembles car ils sont du même auteur, se suivent, et ont tous les deux en toile de fond l'écriture d'un roman. L'auteur est jeune et son style s'affine. J'attends le troisième opus des aventures de Marcus Goldman avec impatience.
The Truth About The Harry Quebert Affair and The Book of the Baltimores: I am putting these two as one entry, as they are from the same author, are a series, and are both about a young writer trying to write a book. Joel Dicker, the author, is still young and his style is getting better and better. I'm curious about the next book.
