Merci Elrring. J'avais en effet beaucoup aimé In a Cold Blood, le livre et le film. See you at Tiffany's. by Mar 9
An amazingly gifted writer, a deep personnality and a disconcerting attitude. Add a bit of mystery, some mondanities and some kind of a destiny and you have one of the greatest history of the 20th Century! (it rhymes! :) by Mar 9
