Les deux messieurs de Bruxelles

Bundel verhalen waarin de liefde centraal staat. Die openbaart zich in vele vormen. De liefde binnen het huwelijk, ouderliefde, stiekeme, verboden liefde, maar wel altijd oprecht en gemeend. De populaire en diverse keren verfilmde Belgische auteur (1960) schrijft direct en weet de lezer steeds weer uit te dagen hem te volgen in zijn verhaal. Onderhoudende lectuur voor een breed publiek. Een aangename verhalenbundel waarin alle aspecten van het liefhebben aan bod komen. Normale druk.
