Title: The King of Afghanistan Did Not Marry Us - Ingrid Thobois - book Summary : 2007 French First Novel Prize First Novel Award They say that true love is a journey... This enchanting debut novel recounts the end of one and the true beginning of the other. Carefully following the narrator's words, we visit Afghanistan, from Kabul to Jalalabad. An intimate Afghanistan, certainly scarred by war, but foreign to the representations provided to us by television news. The young woman arrived there shortly after the American intervention to give French lessons. She fell in love with another expatriate, older and married. If this affair has for her the taste of the new, its torments are the lot of all passions: erotic escapades, missing the other, thirst for the absolute, hope of one day living together, senseless promises, disillusionment and suffering. When the narrator finally succumbs to the charm of a violent but captivating land of exile, she frees herself from the charm of the man who has made her suffer a thousand deaths. It is with a disoriented soul that she sets out to meet inhabitants whose smile, word, or gesture engraves in her memory, and whose ethereal language engraves in ours.

Title : The Shore of Farewells - Hermary-Vieille Catherine - book Summary : "Would you like me to tell you a beautiful story of love and death?" These are the words that began the most dazzling, tender, and cruel legend ever told by bards in the Celtic kingdoms: that of Tristan and Isolde. Since her adolescence, Catherine Hermary-Vieille dreamed of this magical work whose theme has been so often revisited, but whose audacity, violence, and many twists and turns remain curiously unknown. Respecting the original framework of the classic plot, The Farewell Shore fully resurrects the adulterous and tragic affair of a very young queen, the indestructible fidelity of her lover, the pathetic hesitations of a king betrayed by his wife and nephew, harassed by perfidious barons behind the walls of an old fortress battered by the waves of the Irish Sea. If, since the dawn of time, love has remained an enigma, should we not, if it comes, receive it with happiness, accept it as the most precious of gifts, even if it sometimes proves so difficult to live? Beyond their imperishable passion, the immortal lovers of The Farewell Shore testify that only love can transcend our existence, overturn our beliefs, push back the limits of our horizons, give us a glimpse of mysterious lands where the eternal wedding of bodies and souls is finally accomplished.

Title : The Curtain on the Night - Jean-Philippe Arrou-Vignod - book Summary : French First Novel Prize 1984 After brilliant studies at King's College, Cambridge, Paul Finney returns to the austere, magical, and sensual family home of Greenore with the intention of starting a book there during the summer. But the presence of his family (his father, his mother Theodora, and his sisters Ann, Lisa, and Tuesday) and the thousand temptations of a lazily traditional luxury will thwart his project while sharpening his lucidity and humor. If he misses his own accomplishment from the start, he will succeed, on the contrary—in a sumptuously ferocious manner—in analyzing the destruction of a family unit previously united by fortune and the hushed sweetness of old aristocratic rites. Nourished by the ambiguous and caressing memories of a golden childhood, what will ultimately become of this young man full of love, hope, and mistrust, on the threshold of a dubious future? How can one resist the painful, even desperate, desire to draw the "curtain on the night" in front of him in order to conceal his history, past, present and future included?
