This book was a little dragging at first up to the middle, then it slightly got better from middle to end. I liked the ending, there were some good parts as well, but it's not something I would reread.

très lent au début, on comprend pas trop ce qu’on lit parce qu’il y a pas de virgules, c’est écrit un peu n’importe comment et les évènements/personnages font aucun sens, mais quand on se laisse porter par le texte sans trop se poser de question, éventuellement on réalise que tout vient ensemble, tout s’éclaircit et on est laissé avec un des textes les plus décalissants et tragiques qu’on a jamais lu de notre vie x

So good, I would love to reread it in ten years when, hopefully, my French is pitch perfect so I could pick up on all the subtleties of the narration. This one almost made cry while making me laugh out loud.
