A reading like no other. In three acts and two dramatic twists, Guillaume Musso immerses us in a stunning story that draws its strength from the power of books and its characters' lust for life. “Guillaume Musso is a bewitcher who brings the impossible into his characters’ lives when you least expect it. Captivating.” Anne Michelet, Version Femina “A novel as dizzying as it is dense, a high-flying, illusionist exercise on the interactions of an author with his creatures. » Marianne Payot, L'Express “A Machiavellian and jubilant tale. Guillaume Musso has written one of his most personal novels. One of his best, too.” Sandrine Bajos, Le Parisien "Musso takes us on a journey of twists and turns and false leads, ending with a dramatic twist where we understand that we have been fooled from start to finish." Pascale Frey, Le Matin Dimanche "Guillaume Musso brilliantly returns to the craft of writing, inspiration, real life and imaginary... Life is a novel irresistibly brings to mind Romain Gary. » Alain Jean-Robert, AFP “A labyrinth in the style of the film Inception.” Déborah Laurent, 7sur7 "With [his] novels that make complex relationships between fiction and reality the driving force of criminal investigations, Musso plays hide-and-seek with literature and with readers."

Title : The Gates of Hell - Laurent Gaudé - Book Summary : In the aftermath of a shooting in Naples, Matteo sees all sense of purpose crumble. His little boy is dead. His wife, Giuliana, disappears. He himself sinks into solitude and, night after night, wanders the city streets in his empty taxi without reason. But one evening, he lets a strange customer get into his car who, in exchange for payment, offers him a drink in a tiny café. There, Matteo meets the owner, Garibaldo, the unrepentant priest Don Mazerotti, and especially Professor Provolone, a colorful character, as erudite as he is sulphurous, who makes strange speeches about the reality of Hell. And who claims that one can descend there... Those who die take a little of our life with them to the afterlife, and we despair of ever recovering it, both for themselves and to ease our pain. It is in the awareness of all grief—his own, ours—that Laurent Gaudé opposes death with one of the most powerful myths in the history of humanity. Sunny and dark, captivating and breathtaking, his new novel takes us on a "journey" where time and destiny are diverted by the desire to snatch a being from nothingness.
