My dear dear

The latest novel of France's "rock" writer Djian begins with this ordinary sentence: "During the day, my name was Denis. I was a critically sharp-tongued writer who had achieved a certain success. Some nights, my name was Denise. Yes, I was dancing in a cabaret." In the very first sentence, clues are given to a beautiful, striking and fascinating prose flow that awaits the reader. Djian's real genius comes from the speed he brings to his text with a single sentence, similar to the impulse felt by someone who does not know how to ride a bicycle: To stop is to fall. But it is also possible to not stop and be carried away by the blow of the wind and look back. Speed becomes important in Djian's narrative; But the chain flow sometimes breaks and ellipses are placed in between to protect the reader from the danger of falling asleep. There's no time left to catch your breath. Of course, the author also resorts to some unique tricks: He does not use paragraph indentation, quotes or hyphens in dialogues, or a single exclamation or question mark. The reader's imagination makes up for the shortcomings. Djian's art reveals itself in every sentence; These are sentences so clear and easy to read that the effort they hide is never noticeable.
