Life of Hunger

In a wistful, funny, clever, and eccentric fictional memoir, Amelie Nothomb casts herself as hunger - in all its many guises. Recounting the formative journeys of her youth, from Tokyo to Peking to Paris to New York, The Life of Hunger is a brilliant and moving examination of the self.

Intr-un memoriu fictiv melancolic, amuzant, inteligent si excentric, Amelie Nothomb se prezinta drept foame - in toate formele ei. Povestind calatoriile formative din tineretea ei, de la Tokyo la Beijing la Paris la New York, Viata foamei este o examinare stralucitoare si emotionanta a sinelui.
