Bentornato Charley Moon!
La vita di Charley Moon è come un film: da contadino in uno sperduto paesino della campagna inglese, un giorno si è ritrovato con un contratto firmato da un impresario di passaggio, che lo ha catapultato su un palcoscenico nel West End di Londra. Sulla strada verso il successo però ha lasciato dietro di sé il suo unico, grande amore. Passati gli anni, dopo aver fatto parlare di sé, Charley è ora svanito nel nulla e nessuno sa come né quando. Sono in molti a chiedersi che fine abbia fatto quel bizzarro, timido uomo, e se mai tornerà per riprendere le cose da come le aveva lasciate… Dall’autore di “Memorie di un vecchio giardiniere”, una storia tenera e delicata che, con un tocco umoristico, ci racconta la vita, quella vera e quella sulle scene, gli imprevisti quotidiani e il prezzo del successo.

Zunächst hat es Spaß gemacht die Geschichte zu lesen allerdings ist die Aufopferung des weiblichen Hauptcharakters kaum zu ertragen...

No hemos encajado. Y la cosa es que no empezó mal, pero no podía con alguno de los personajes y se me cruzó la lectura. A veces es simplemente personal

Una historia sencilla y bonita sobre un chico que se va dejando llevar por la vida, descubriendo y disfrutando a su manera. Ligera y fresca. Me ha gustado
