#vendredilecture inspiré de curiosité pour la mégalomanie larmoyante qui s’est manifestée quand l’ancien PR (© #MartinMongin) s’est fait entauler armé de rien qu’une caisse de yaourt et deux livres qu'il considère sans doute comme emblématiques de son propre destin tragique : le grand classique de consolation petite-bourgeoise, « Le comte de Monte-Cristo », et un pavé idolâtrant « Jésus » de #JeanChristianPetitfils (qu’un ami théologien – au grand sourire sardonique – m’a filé pour voir). À moi alors de constater que franchement, ce truc grandiloquent et réactionnaire, pire même que les sagas soporifiques d’un #ChristianJacq, je ne le terminerai pas. 1/2

He has written several series on the topic, all of which I can recommend...1)

I should like to travel there some time, though.At this point, I should reveal, though, that some years back I read all the history novels about ancient #Egypt that I could get my hands on: from the founding of a unified kingdom, to its demise as a #Roman province and the #Arab conquest.
