> À partir d'anecdotes autobiographiques, Chantal Thomas, qui vient de gagner le prix Fémina 2002, retrace le difficile chemin de la liberté pour une femme, encore en France au XXIe siècle. Délicat, profond, simple et vrai, merveilleusement bien écrit !

Un chouette petit livre que j'ai avalé durent nos vanaces d'été en Espagne : une ode à la liberté, à l'indépendance de la femme, au droit de dire non, d'envoyer balader les traditions, les schémas tout faits, de galérer parfois mais de vivre, de vivre à pleine dents, de penser par soi-même. Chantal Thomas revendique ses choix de vie : pas d'enfants, pas de conjoint, et une grande liberté dans tout ce qu'elle fait. Elle nous emporte à travers ces 150 pages dans une (re)-visite de grands écrivains, de belles figures de liberté (Virginia Woolf, Guido Ceronetti,...)
Un beau moment de lecture. ( )
