Et après ...
Nathan, regardez le garçon à l’anorak orange
- Pardon ?
- Regardez le garçon à l’anorak orange
- Bon sang, Garrett, pourquoi voulez-vous que je regarde ?
- Parce qu’il va mourir.
Moins d’une minute plus tard, l’adolescent se tire une balle dans la tête. Et c’est ainsi que Nathan Del Amico, brillant avocat new-yorkais, découvre l’étrange pouvoir de Garrett Goodrich.
A la fois choqué et abasourdi, Nathan voudrait chasser cette scène de son esprit…
Alors qui est ce Garrett Goodrich ? Un cancérologue chevronné, directeur d’un important centre de soins palliatifs. Il n’a rien d’un illuminé et pourtant il se dit capable de prévoir la mort. Il prétend avoir une « mission » : accompagner ceux qui vont mourir jusqu’aux frontières de l’Autre Monde pour qu’ils quittent la vie en paix avec eux-mêmes
*SPOILERS* *SPOILERS* 1. I was sure that the author was not going to kill somebody Nathan liked. But I was surprised... 2. It's sad that you need to face the death to become good and attentive to others. If Nathan was not going to die, he would never soend more time wth his family, he would never have his wife back or would never know the truth about his father-in-law.
Those who remember the TV series The Twilight Zone,, may recall a particularly creepy episode called The Purple Testament in which an American GI in World War II Europe has the unenviable gift of knowing who is about to die. He can see a bright light come over the faces of a wounded man in the hospital or an officer preparing for battle, and sure enough, both die quickly. As the program ends, the soldier sees the light come over his own face in the mirror as well as over the face of the driver
I loved it
Wow...I don't think any words can describe as much I loved this book. As usual Musso suprised me in many ways and I have to say that I loved all his books that I had the chance to read so whan I picked up this one I expected a lot of it annd I was not disapointed! This one made mee cry so much and made me realize how our life is important !I recomand it to EVERYONE !I freaking love Musso.
While I enjoyed reading this book, there were a few issues that weren't to my liking. For starters, I was surprised that the book was set in New York. I knew that Guillaume Musso is a contemporary French author and I was expecting the book to be set in France. That was disappointing to me (but that's just me and only because I have a somewhat complicated history with New York). Second of all, there are things in the novel that didn't quite make sense. (view spoiler)[ here are some examples: when
I was not impressed to be honest.The first book I read by Musso was "Demain",so maybe it set the bar too high for me that I found this book quite basic.The ending was quite surprising,even though I did somewhat see it coming.The book is not a masterpiece,but it is not bad either. It is OK.
