It really left me wondering if [a:Jostein Gaarder|1388082|Jostein Gaarder|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1314177785p2/1388082.jpg] is pulling a trick here or if it is genuine. I guess I hope that it all is real. I was unfamiliar with Saint Augustine before starting this booklet, let alone his Confessiones. Nevertheless, it is quite easy to follow and remains interesting to read. I was just a bit disappointed in the middle section when I lost track of what point the narrator Floria was trying to make. She just kept on repeating the same things and funnily enough complained herself about Augustine always repeating himself in the Confessiones. However, little by little some elements from their love affair are being revealed to the reader, which keeps it interesting altogether. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

A box of Latin manuscripts comes to light in an Argentine flea market. An apocyphral invention by some 17th or 18th century scolar, or a transcrpit of what it appears to be - a hitherto unheard of letter to St Augustine to a woman he renounced for chastity? VITA BREVIS is both an entrancing human document and a fascinating insight into the life and philosophy of St.Augustine. Gaarder'sinterpretation of Floria's letter is as playful, inventive and questioning as SOPHIE'S WORLD. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

> COUP DE CHAPEAU : À Vita Brevis de Jostein Gaarder aux éd. du Seuil : pourquoi l’auteur de l’excellent Monde de Sophie a-t-il laissé son éditeur prendre le curieux parti de n’imprimer que la page de droite du livre - qui raconte par ailleurs joliment le point de vue de la femme de Saint-Augustin sur celui qui fut son amant et le père de son enfant ? Ce ne sont pas les quelques notes qui, de temps à autre, sur la page de gauche, peuvent dissiper l’impression de malaise que donne la lecture de 240 pages qui devraient en faire 140 avec lesdites notes - fort utiles au demeurant. —Nouvelles Clés
