It is difficult and ungrateful to retell the plot of this wonderful book. Just because the main hero is only born in the middle of the novel and in the end he turns five. The narration mainly consists of thoughts of the child’s father, stories of the guests that gathered in his house to greet the upcoming event, stories of the people the guests know that experienced the same situations and etc.… It’s accompanied with excellent humour that is unnoticed at first.
