Reviews

[Agnès · Rating 5 out of 5]

Marcè Rodoreda amb la seva esplandor estilística fascina el lector amb poques paraules. És una meravella l'elecció de vocabulari al mateix temps que les descripcions.
Molt recomanable.

Un recull de contes que mantenen un fil conductor comú: la guerra, però amb enfocaments ben diferents. Alguns els he trobat originals, altres m'han passat sense dir-me massa res.
