Re: When did you discover Yoko
Hi! My spanish is very poor, but it's good to see this topic in english.
I do not remember exactly when i discovered Yoko, but it was quite a long time ago. In fact, i believe i read it when i was still a very young boy, as soon as i was able to read something, at about 6 years of age. I used to love so much going to the library ; my mum went on shopping and in the mean time my "baby seater" was the library! I was facinated with books in general, and Yoko in particular. I remember that i had in one hand "Jean qui rit, Jean qui pleurt" and in the other hand "Yoko"!... Since, i have tried to determine which album i read first but i'm not sure after all. Anyway, what i remember is THE ALBUM which made me fall in love with my favourite Japanese girl : "la frontière de la vie". I have never forgotten what i felt reading it, and i've still a strange and mixed emotion when i take it. The atmosphere of this story is for me a part of my own childhood. I cannot explain exactly my feelings, but surely you'll understand what i mean if you have personaly felt something like that... Anyway, sorry i'm losing myself somewhere in my past, but that's definetly why i have chosen to write : "grandir avec Yoko", cos i really feel i grew up with her and that she belongs for a part to my own past life... Don't know if you will understand it but it's good to talk about it, it's like feeling again a "caresse" like they say in french. Thank you Mr Lelou^p for that!
