Reader comments
I especially like the two articles "The Return of Prisoners of War" and "The Origin of the Master". The humorous writing made me laugh. As the book says: "Life may not be as good as you imagine, but it will not be as bad as you imagine." His portrayal of life and human nature made me think deeply. However, I kind of hate the selfish character in the story, what about you?
This book is a bit like the Decameron, but the story is much more interesting than the Decameron
The French's brushstrokes are always witty and interesting, touching lightly but with endless aftertaste.
