As well as that, it evokes the art of the period, which I thought was a nice touch. I picked up that the story was set in the 1950s based on the clothes the characters were wearing and the old-fashioned image of Paris, which looks very different nowadays. Anyway, mileage varies. I enjoyed reading this review even if I disagreed with some points.
