Deux soeurs jumelles, deux personnalits opposes : Claudine et Pauline nont pas grandi de la mme faon et les adultes quelles sont devenues nont rien pour sentendre. Lune est rebelle et renferme, lautre est une pin-up ambitieuse. Lune a un talent, lautre les dents longues. Est-il possible de rconcilier deux extrmes que tout semble sparer ? Virginie Despentes dresse ici le portrait dune femme cartele entre deux choix de vie : compromission ou radicalit. Le roman a reu le prix de Flore en 1998 et a t port lcran par Gilles Paquet-Brenner en 2001, avec Marion Cotillard et Stomy Bugsy dans les rles titres.

Despentes!! Emily Wilson! Sarah Perry! Julia Alvarez! And Ana Castillo, who came to my attention because of you @Reggie ! That lovely notebook. I wish I could write something more meaningful about how grateful I am to get all of this. I'm just like 😭😭😍😍😭😭 *hug* Thank you for your kindness in replacing the missing #jolabokaflodswap package (that was actually delayed in the post & arrived much later). Littens are the very best. ❤️❤️

Mehso-so

I might change this to “pan” eventually because I cannot quite decide. Not sure if it‘s not as impactful in translation or I‘m too prudish to appreciate the vulgarity but it was a rough read that I stayed at least invested in enough to finish. Thoughts?
