Title : Street of Dark Shops - Modiano Patrick - Book
Summary :
Who has forgotten? The 2014 Nobel Prize winner in Literature was first awarded the Prix Goncourt.
In Rue des Boutiques Obscures , Guy Roland, a detective from a Parisian agency run by a Baltic baron, takes advantage of its closure to investigate the most fascinating and perilous subject: himself. Was he not struck by amnesia after an accident? He traces his story in post-war Paris, questions, consults photos and used directories. Reading this novel, which borrows from the detective genre, we once again experience the experience that the young writer, revealed ten years earlier with La Place de l'Etoile continues to explore themes that shape his inner world. The quest for identity plays a central role.
Announcing the winner, Goncourt jury member Armand Lanoux said of Modiano's unsuccessful competitor: "We would have honored a book. With Patrick Modiano, we honored a writer." A writer: who would dispute the word today?
