Summary

"- Tu seras un héros, tu seras général, Gabriele D'Annunzio, Ambassadeur de France - tous ces voyous ne savent pas qui tu es !
Je crois que jamais un fils n'a haï sa mère autant que moi, à ce moment-là. Mais, alors que j'essayais de lui expliquer dans un murmure rageur qu'elle me compromettait irrémédiablement aux yeux de l'Armée de l'Air, et que je faisais un nouvel effort pour la pousser derrière le taxi, son visage prit une expression désemparée, ses lèvres se mirent à trembler, et j'entendis une fois de plus la formule intolérable, devenue depuis longtemps classique dans nos rapports :
- Alors, tu as honte de ta vieille mère ?"

De sa voix ronde et chaleureuse, Hervé Pierre restitue à merveille l'hommage de Romain Gary à sa mère. Une lecture entre rire et larmes où se succèdent scènes d'amour, d'adieu et de retrouvailles.

Outstanding

Fascinating memoirs, original, never dull for a moment. Everything I thought it would be and more.

Pas passionnant

J’ai trouvé ça très long me suis forcée à le finir. Mais c’est peut être parce que je ne suis plus sensible aux aventures de jeunes hommes, si présentes dans les livres de l’époque.
