Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Een derderangs wannabe-schrijver/student ziet zichzelf tijdens een poëziemeeting stommelings tot het nieuwste genie van de Parijse literaire scene van de jaren 50 gekatapulteerd. Even later ontmoet hij enkele zelfverklaarde kunstenaars en wordt hij een wijfelende posterboy van het avantgardistische en criminele nachtleven, waar het opblazen van de Eiffeltoren als dé ultieme poëtische daad geldt. Een knallende verstripping van een literaire en vooral opportunistische wensdroom. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
"Paris in the 1950s: the reign of Sartre and existentialism. Daniel Brodin--bibliophile, book thief, self-proclaimed poet--enters the heated atmosphere of the Cafe Serbier, home of the Parisian literati. A poetry night is taking place and, when one luminary suggests giving the floor to an unknown, Daniel impulsively puts himself forward. Under pressure, he recites not one of his own surrealist poems but an obscure piece of Italian verse he's certain no one will know. It's plagiarism--but it's a triumph. At last, success. Daniel's recital marks his entrance into the Parisian avant-garde: a band of cultured rogues and pseudo-revolutionaries for whom life is a playground for art, and planning a robbery has as much value as writing a book. In this milieu, the wine is good and the girls are beautiful. But can success last if it is founded on plagiarism and theft?"--Provided by publisher. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Theme: life should be an art-piece, so we shouldn't build our lives for success but to create an interesting narrative. Underground artists in hostile cafes, no sense of security, crime for the sake of an interesting memoir, leftists, anti-authority, snobs both idolizing and rejecting Sartre as populist figurehead and not a true preacher. Everything in this book is taken to the extreme and it feels ridiculous. I'd prefer something more down-to-earth. ( )
