Book Reviews of Journey to the End of the Night (New Directions Paperbook)
Book Review: Unbelievably brilliant style.....oozes dazzling talent...not
Summary: 5 Stars
Celine is a master story teller..autobiographical..pessimist..cynic...his writing style is emotion personified in a constantly over the top ( seemingly) ranting blast at the world and everything in it.....transposed ( as he puts it) from the mundane...the man is a genius with words ..he never expected ,looked for "fame" wanted to be left alone to die peacefully...as he put it he would write 80 000 pages to boil it down to 800..and each sentence is worth it...his work is just a very appealing acid champagne...thoroughly recommended...
