In stark contrast, Nadia emerges as a beacon of unwavering determination, striving for independence in a male-dominated environment. She is a successful journalist and her life appears to be perfect to anyone that may cast a glance her way, however, there is something stirring within Adele that she is unable to resist.

She hires hotel rooms, drags them into alleyways, drops to her knees in the cloakrooms of dinner parties. An entertaining, insightful journey on the relationship rollercoaster in this exhilarating collection of short stories. Anyone who has any kind of capacity to truly let go and give into yourself with any kind of desire to hold on for dear life - Do it. What I fell in love with most about Adele Bertei’s fearless memoir is the strange certainty of its voice, even when—especially when—it is that of a young child. Uma mulher que procura o conflito, consigo e com o mundo, que quebra todas as regras para se auto-destruir e procurar, esperando ferramentas que lhe cheguem de fora, uma reconstrução, algo que a parta e a volte a unir de outra forma, una.Despite the affection she feels for her son and her husband, she can’t resist to seize every opportunity she gets – a dinner party with her husband’s colleagues, a visit of an art gallery, an after work drink - to give her body what it ask for. They dragged her from the mud of adolescence and she traded childish passivity for the lasciviousness of a geisha.

She is never formally diagnosed in the story, but obviously Adele is completely unable to stop herself. This contrast between his surroundings and his perspective creates an interesting dynamic but somewhat detracts from the central theme of a marriage in crisis. Steph tests the boundaries when she asks Pip to give her an alibi for the night her husband was involved in a hit and run. I assume it had to be a kind of psychological study of a person in the grip of addiction, in a tangle of desires impossible to satiate. This is a book of how a singer or a song can connect so many people and touch so many hearts in a way no one else could.Slimani schreibt hier unglaublich atmosphärisch mit der je ne sais quoi Hand einer Französin und reiht sich damit zu meinen Lieblingen wie De Vigan oder Despentes. Adele suffers from sex addiction which she keeps hidden away from everyone except her very best friend, Lauren, who is growing weary with covering up for Adele's infidelities. So this short novel is slightly flawed, but hey, this was Slimani's debut, and she was certainly not playing it safe, and I appreciate that. but her weak impressionistic style makes for an unmemorable narrative, despite the salacious subject matter.

Après, il y a aussi le fait que je ne lis pas beaucoup de romans contemporains, donc j'ai ét�� aussi intrigué par la nouveauté. Her singing and songwriting career includes recording, performing live, and writing for such diverse acts as Thomas Dolby, Tears for Fears, Culture Club, Whitney Houston, Scritti Politti, Sheena Easton, Jellybean Benitez, Lydia Lunch, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, the Pointer Sisters, and John Lurie. Her main reason for working as a journalist is that her schedule allows for a lot of excuses and cover-ups for her numerous extramarital sexual exploits.Twist is one of the most original, amazing stories I’ve ever read—a story of innocence and brutality, of courage and faith and luck. Either way, anyone willing to accompany Adèle on her journey will find that the experience can be challenging, and upsetting, but also unexpectedly rewarding. Following Adèle on her downward spiral into the enslavement of her need for sex with strangers is not unlike that of any other addiction, I could have easily been reading a book about a heroin addict. Lucy stole her friend Rose’s ‘happily ever after’ because she wanted Rose’s husband and Lucy always gets what she wants. She comes up with a nice hook, adds a dash of humor to distract any readers who were expecting the article to provide some information.
