Here’s the brief review in Petit
Futé. (Had trouble uploading the PDF page with all the other reviews, eight in all. This was the first review at top left of page!)
Multiple Malaisie
Une
immersion dans le quotidien et les coustumes traditionnelles des communautés
malaise, chinoise et indienne de Malaisie : c’est ce que nous propose Robert
Raymer dans ce recueil de quatorze nouvelles agréablement illustrées. Au
fil de ces récits nous est livré le portrait d’une société composite, à la
richesse culturelle fascinante, où les communautés se croisent mais peinent
aussi parfois a se mélanger. Un dépaysement rare, au sujet d'un pays dont on parle peu.
Trois Autres Malaisie,
