The first thing you have to say about this novel is "congratulations to those who chose the Italian title" ... certainly responsible for the sale of a lot 'of copies of this book. Too bad then you open the cover and read the original "Pure Fiction" (actually much more suited to the plot) and especially of books that they appear so, but just a few (and apart from those of Tyler which I have already read, I felt like reading any of the others).
The books are really a gimmick to tell the story of this group of people who know each other by participating in the same reading group and whose lives are linked and intertwined in a more or less funny, or profound scontantata to point to stand together to avenge one of its members.
There are a lot of main characters, but none that I have conquered so much. And there, frustrated writer and home, which initially seems adorable but then at least for me it becomes irritating. There's Kate, a restorer with a rebellious daughter. We are Zoe and Donna, which will end with the same man and that together we avenge. We are Bob and Browen, the more sedate of the group, and the obnoxious and pedantic Gideon. In short, many people but in my opinion not as well done (much better than the minor characters). And the plot, cute, funny at times too, but with the gimmick of the initial reading club, could come up with something much better. And the style of the author, at times a bit 'confused, does not help ...
A book on the beach or by train without pretentious (because if he had, surely disappoint), which is good to spend a few hours ... But you can not read it.
translation Note: apart from the title, nothing to say
