Compte Rendu sur la nouvelle de Jacqueline Woodson: "My Crazy Beautiful World"

I've read the short story "My Crazy Beautiful World" by Jacqueline Woodson, it's the first time i'm reading a book from this author. She used a very descriptive style, for example when she describes herself or the others characters like her Mother or her little brother, we immediatly see them in our head and i think that it's very important to imagine these characters from the first time she evokes them.

She delivers the story of her childhood by putting herself in another character named Angela. Jacqueline Woodson uses a technique to capture several thematic of the different part of her short story like the Freedom evocated when it's the summer or the thematic of the Family wich is very present all along the story.

Indeed, we can feel a very strong link between Angela's and her Grandmother when we are reading the passage where she describes the intimate bond existing between herself and her Grandmother. This passage can illustrates the author's approach to literature as a way of speaking of lineage. Finally we can understand that Jacqueline Woodson wanted to make us feel the family feeling in her book.  I've come to appreciate this book for what she knew how to make us feel different thematic like the family's link, freedom .. 

I can recommend this book for people who like reading books with a very precise description and who like feel something by the literature.
