Excellente lecture.
Ca faisait un bail que je n'avais pas lu une pièce de théâtre. On reste dans une configuration classique. 
Mais quelle poésie, quel parcours. On est époustouflé à la fin de la lecture. J'ai vu ces gens. J'ai vu leurs peines et j'ai compris. 
C'est une belle oeuvre facile à lire sur l'exil, la guerre et les crimes qui se perpétuent à ces moments là. 
Merci pour ce beau texte, j'ai hâte de voir la pièce de théâtre sur Youtube.

Ce livre m’a marqué, il est incroyablement bien écrit et on ne s’attend pas du tout à la fin, mais il aborde des sujets très difficiles
