More about the book

Set against the backdrop of the south of France, the narrative follows a privileged man racing toward a fatal crash with his daughter and best friend. Through a continuous monologue, he explores the notion that deliberate destruction embodies the pinnacle of poetic imagination. Engaging with themes of sex, myth, and the absurd, this work is marked by its striking irony and a blend of eroticism and comic terror, making it a notable piece of twentieth-century literature.
