hard to find time to read this back when even a little more sluggish and chaotic than the previous ...
So I suggest you change your mind and fortify yourself with a little subversive writings and really strippers:
' Holiday on Ice "by David Sedaris (1997 - 134 pages)
Minimum level required: B2 + (most 2nd or 3rd degree)
(to determine your level of reading, see the pages of June 09 of this blog)
David Sedaris is the enfant terrible of America which he debunks slowly but surely Most founding myths. He does it with cynicism often very funny, but sometimes very very 'borderline '. This book is a collection of six stories, including my favorite is the first: the narrator - he is a naive young man, without relief, without a priori talent, which sometimes stories Common - a distance hilarious recounting the super job he won in the largest store in New York: it is 'Santa's Elf' and in this capacity that he became the most caustic observer American families in the midst of shopping frenzy season.
It's great fun, and that you will restore morale: phew! We are in September! Cheers for the fall! Another two months before falling in this idiotic consumerism! (At least in France - since my antennae tell me that the U.S. every year, the day after Halloween, all orange decorations stores saw a red Christmas night! B usiness is business, and time is money).
Have fun reading this author to the antithesis of political correctness. But I'll get you on notice: it can turn into a totally sleazy (a baby dies in a washing machine ... David Sedaris is not afraid of anything!)
