L'extraordinaire voyage du fakir qui était resté coincé dans une armoire Ikéa

This is one of the best written books that I have read in a long time. It is funny, ironic, and very serious -- all at the same time. It is beautifully read by M. Pignon, and I greatly enjoyed listening to it while driving.

Very funny and very sad at once, a picaresque novella with some serious things to say about cruelty, humanity, and love. The plot grows thin as the story goes on, but the reader has come to care about the Jackson Five, Sophie Morceau, and of course Achat-des-chattes enough that there is never a temptation to put it down.

This was an easy read and full of fun while at the same time presenting some serious comments on immigration among other things.

Bought the book for my wife for her French Class. These are her ratings to the letter.

Great book
