Title : Metaphysics of Tubes - Amélie Nothomb - Book
Summary :
Until the age of two and a half, Amélie describes herself as a digestive tract, inert and vegetative. Then comes the founding event that plunges her into the world of childhood. Over six months, she discovers language, parents, brothers and sisters, Japanese nannies, the paradise garden, passions (Japan and water), disgusts (carp), seasons, time. Everything that, from the age of three, constitutes the human person forever. Because at that age, everything is decided, happiness as well as tragedy... This is the message sent to us by this baby with the black eye, staring sharply at the world. A sharpness coupled with a sense of irony, both amused and desperate, that makes Amélie Nothomb unique.
