About this listen

"À quelques mois d'intervalle, la vie m'a rendu témoin des deux événements qui me font le plus peur au monde : la mort d'un enfant pour ses parents, celle d'une jeune femme pour ses enfants et son mari. Quelqu'un m'a dit alors : tu es écrivain, pourquoi n'écris-tu pas notre histoire ? C'était une commande, je l'ai acceptée. C'est ainsi que je me suis retrouvé à raconter l'amitié entre un homme et une femme, tous deux rescapés d'un cancer, tous deux boiteux et tous deux juges, qui s'occupaient d'affaires de surendettement au tribunal d'instance de Vienne (Isère). Il est question dans ce livre de vie et de mort, de maladie, d'extrême pauvreté, de justice et surtout d'amour. Tout y est vrai."©2009 Editions P.O.L.

Heart-warming and honest / Récit tendre et honette

I've read a couple of books by the author but this is my first time in audiobook format. The narrator does an excellent job and matches Carrere's candid, unassuming style.

des melodies sinistres de saxophone entre les chapitres font que l'experience d'ecoute devienne sombre et penible. heureusement le texte est formidable

Music?

narrator is very very good, novel is remarkable albeit very hard and sometimes it needs a break to recover but unfortunately there is music (?) an annoying sound, truly terrible each chapter and sometimes between paragraphs very damaging to listening
