Le parfum
By Patrick Süskind
1991
Cam Desombre rated ★ 7/10
Livre assez perturbant - Grenouille porte bien son nom, il ne paye pas de mine et pourtant il réalisera ses échantillons qui lui permettront de contrôler le monde…le monde qui se pliera devant un parfum. Vengeance, obstination, désir…toutes ces choses mêlées en un seul livre qui met assez mal à l’aise mais qui en dit long le vice
Summary
Analyse : Roman picaresque. Roman historique.
