### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Playful, serious, profound, incredible piece of writing
  

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2022*

Wonderful piece of literature about a young man with an eccentric but loving family in a small village in Normandy, in love with Lila through the ordeal of World War II and the French Resistance. Sadly, I had not heard of this author, who apparently is renowned in France. The writing itself is enough to carry the reader along to the end. Each sentence is a jewel.It is clear that Gary knows what he’s talking about in covering the war and the resistance. That in itself was fascinating in its detail and its humanity. There are a breadth of characters here, each one charming, unusual, touching. The theme of the kites runs throughout and has a complexity of meanings, many of them quite profound. The book never minimizes this period of history, but manages to make it playful, human, and full of the gravity it deserves, all at the same time.

    An incredible and deeply personal work
  

*by B***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2020*

I generally don't write reviews, but this is the exception that proves the rule. This is the first work that I have read by Gary, and it was a breathtaking read. Romain Gary gives us a mesmerizing perspective on life, love, loss, despair, and happiness, wrapped up in the context of a love affair during one of the most horrible periods of modern history. What is even more interesting is how well Gary weaves in 'real' people and events, such as  Pastor André Trocmé and Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, all while pursuing the theme of using memory and imagination as a weapon against oppression. Gary contemplates the human condition, questioning if inhumanity, as shown by Nazis and even by the French, is an integral part of being human.  While I have not read the work in the original French, Mouillot's translation flowed organically. High praise for both the author and translator.

    A rewarding read
  

*by S***L on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2018*

Character drives this novel, set in  a small town in Normandy and Poland before and during WW II. A math genius with a perfect memory, his uncle, a celebrated maker of imaginative kites, the owner and chef of a gourmand restaurant, an impulsive, sensual young woman, even a Jewish Madame. The math wizard and the madame conceal their identities, while working in the resistance. The chef's resistance is to preserve flaunt French gastronomy. The characters engage the reader and cling to the end. Impulsive conduct if not the rule, is no exception. The writing is fluid, the plot flows, and the story is compelling. It is an original contribution to the genre. Sheldon Greene is a novelist.
