À propos de ce contenu audio

Once upon a time, there was a boy who lost his mother.... As twelve-year-old David takes refuge from his grief in the myths and fairytales so beloved of his dead mother, he finds the real world and the fantasy world begin to blend. That is when bad things start to happen. That is when the Crooked Man comes. And David is violently propelled into a land populated by heroes, wolves, and monsters, and begins his quest to find the legendary Book of Lost Things.

    What brought me to this book I had never heard of is Miyazaki’s “The boy and the heron”; somewhere, someone mentioned it as one of the inspiration for the movie, and indeed, I can see it. Themes of the significance of the loss of a parent for a child, death, the afterlife, travelling in hell, coming of age and accepting and living life as it is.
    Warning : the story is FULL of very vivid and cruel events, ie : offspring devouring their mother as they are born… I wouldn’t put this book in the hands of most children.
    Paradoxically, I was often reminded of CS Lewis’ Narnia, up to the last sentence ; the story uses allegory, but also a very moving longing. It also uses the retelling of traditional fairytales, with enlightening dark humour (humour?). The construction of the story makes it interesting to read/listen to again – contemplating it from a more informed viewpoint, which I definitely will do.
    I really enjoyed the voice and interpretation of Nick Rawlinson.

    Glad I found this book !
