Laberintos de orgullo by Rosa Maria Britton ES
Country: North America / 
Panama
Panama
Description:
Le livre commence en force avec l'enfance et la jeunesse du protagoniste, mais malheureusement, son histoire d'amour impossible alors qu'il est marié et père de deux enfants s'éternise péniblement dans la deuxième partie du livre. J'ai tout de même bien aimé et j'ai constaté ma profonde ignorance de l'histoire du Panama. Bref, une bonne lecture, mais qui aurait pu avoir 100 pages de moins!
