Title : The Naive Man Under the Flag - Paul Guth - book
Summary :
What an astonishing character, this Naïf!
[...] Laughter bursts forth from every scene. But make no mistake! Paul Guth has introduced a new style into our literature where humor vies with poetry.
Through his skill in handling the singular trait, through his precision as an observer who walks through life with a jeweler's eye, through a certain shamelessness of innocence in the description of bodies and in the analysis of love, Paul Guth has done more than compose a book; he has created a character: The Naive.
His Naïf now enjoys the privilege of being fascinating simply because his personal vision of the world constantly surprises and moves us.
The Naive is to Paul Guth what Charlot is to Charlie Chaplin.
