Waiting for Bojangles
29.99 €
Under the admiring gaze of their son, to the voice of Nina Simone singing the famous "Mr. Bojangles", they twirl in a mesmerizing dance. Their love is magic, their happiness is immense, their life is an eternal celebration. This family - Daddy, Mommy, son and a hand crane - is the embodiment of harmony and joy. And the tone here is set by Mommy - extravagant, unpredictable, cheerful, loving and beloved. It was she who brought the fourth member of the family into the house - a huge exotic bird, which now wanders around the apartment, caresses people and participates in their escapades. It is Mommy who fills the house with dreams and fantasies; she is a whirlwind of joy, fun, and unbridled imagination. But one day this whirlwind takes her too far away. Father and son will try everything to hold back the unstoppable, to avoid the inevitable, but the mad love is too great and too strong. Olivier Bourdeau is a literary sensation in France, his debut book literally captivated the entire country in a matter of weeks. In this small novel original humor beats over the edge, it is full of quirkiness in the spirit of Boris Vian, frivolity and seriousness at once, sadness and joy, madness and love. The title of the book was given to the famous Jerry J. Walker song, "Mr. Bojangles," which became the trademark of the magical Nina Simone.
