Marie Sandra, a young student was interviewed by Sophie for the show "Desert Island Books". She is sixteen years old, she's from Cachan, a suburb next to Paris. She likes going to the cinema, reading, playing the piano and she used to play the guitar and the harp.
The first book that she read was Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. She reads romantic books because for her everything can be possible with that kind of books. You can dream or escape from reality.
If she had to go to a desert island she would take the Half-Brother by Laars Saabye Christensen, a Norwegian writer. She discovered it at a book exhibition called "Le Salon du Livre". She saw the cover, read the back cover and loved the topic.
The book is about two half-brothers. The older one is not really a good example for the little onebecause he's doing a lot of bad things. The little brother is really sad and worried because of that. The book is realistic, they don't show that they love each other but it's beautiful. You can also find yourself in the characters.
Of course Marie Sandra recommands it to everybody because it's easy to read and it is a moving story.
