Opis: Pompidou Posse - Sarah Lotz

Paris is eternal. Art is love. Friendship is forever. Except when it isn't. You're seventeen. One night, more or less by accident, you set fire to a garden shed.

You're young, you're talented, you're full of life, and you have your best friend in all the world by your side. What could possibly go wrong?
