Abstract:
I feel again the strange caress me so terrified when I was dancing alone on stage Fairhall's. Bewitched by this breath, I suspend all movement, for fear of interruption. Suddenly, a murmur in the hollow of my ear. The beat of my heart jostle. Panic overwhelms me. Both times, there's nobody near me. One question, one obsession: am I going crazy?
skidded A young dancer in New York to fulfill the dream of his life. A dream that will turn an obsession ...
My opinion:
- The first time I heard about this book, I had some apprehensions, afraid it sounds too much with the phantom of the opera. In reality, it is a great surprise! I really liked!
Gisele therefore leaves his native France to try his luck on Broadway. She auditioned to be a role, no matter which, in an adaptation of Romeo and Juliet. So it is realigned, the owner of Fairhall offered him a job as a cleaner with the key stage all to herself in order to repeat.
However, during these rehearsals Gisele goes that she is not alone, she felt a warm breath against her skin, she hears whispers in his ear ...
This is a love story but a love story that is not built with the usual pattern. It's really special and the title is really well suited to the book ... We speak of obsession as much as somebody dance, it comes to passion, love, hatred of cruelty ... In short it's pretty mesmerizing.
Some will read this book and find it lacking a little "love action" if I can put it that way, but this feeling can be gentle, brutal, strong, pernicious is omnipresent throughout the story.
- I have many characters in the book! Gisele is determined, sweet, gentle but naive and vulnerable, Chance meanwhile, I was very intrigued and tried to understand, to put myself in his place and learned to appreciate a some way. Obviously, we can not resist ... Bevian it is really impossible to fall ... I also liked the character of Louise, the old woman who almost becomes the best friend and confidante in a certain way of Gisele.
- So this is a book that I liked it reads very quickly! (A tiny afternoon for me). The author's style is pleasant, smooth, the descriptions are well proportioned, it does not linger on irrelevant details, the chain of events, everything is consistent ... In short, a great time!
