Ecrit à la suite d'un pari, cet excellent pastiche de roman noir fut publié en 1946 sous le pseudonyme de Vernon Sullivan, un prétendu auteur américain. Récit d'une vengeance, dénonciation du racisme et de l'intolérance, ce best-seller fut jugé à l'époque immoral et pornographique, ce qui amena son interdiction en 1949 et la condamnation de son auteur pour outrage aux bonnes moeurs. --Claude Mesplède

Un très bon livre,

This review is from: J'IRAI CRACHER SUR VOS TOMBES (Paperback)
J'ai grandement adoré ce livre, c'est ce livre qui ma fait découvrir Boris Vian, un très bon auteur. Depuis ce temps, il est devenu l'un de mes auteurs favoris. Ce roman a un style particulier, mais je conseille à tous le monde de le lire.

hardboiled Vian,
By "enui" (italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: J'IRAI CRACHER SUR VOS TOMBES (Paperback)
The first book from Vian I read was "L'ecume des jours", so I was a bit stunned when I first picked up this book. The style is totally different, far from the surrealism and the pun of the other book. Instead: action , violence and sex in "hardboiled" style, still seasoned with Vian's sarcasm. In fact, Vian wrote it using the pseudonym of Vernon Sullivan, pretending to be just the translator of this book "censored in the US and first published in France". His publisher was looking for an "american" novel, and Vian offered himself to write it, in 14 days; a proof of his ability, an hommage to his beloved America that he never visited , and a violent attack to racism by a jazz fan and performer.

This review is from: J'IRAI CRACHER SUR VOS TOMBES (Paperback)
I saw a movie with the same title that was quite gory, worse than the book itself.In the book, I was appalled by the pedophilia scene. However, I think that the book had a message about the way some men treat women (this I saw it repeatedly in my life time). Boris Vian is an excellent writer and I will try to get "Foam of the Daze," which is considered very good and quite different from "I will spit on your grave," which should not be recommended to anyone. |
