I'LL STOP TOMORROW

Release date : 30/11/2023
With this, his first comedy novel, Gilles Legardinier — already known for his thrillers L'Exil des anges and Nous étions les hommes — has revealed a new facet of his continuously surprising imagination. Funny, hard-hitting, and terribly moving, this novel confirms what anyone who has read any of his books already knows: Gilles has a gift for telling original stories that take us out of ourselves while also resonating with our most intimate nature. This is a book that feels good!
Like everyone, Julie has done a lot of stupid things. Like that time she put on a sweater while falling down a flight of stairs. And that time she tried to fix an electrical socket while holding the wires between her teeth. And her obsession with the new neighbor she’s... Like everyone, Julie has done a lot of stupid things. Like that time she put on a sweater while falling down a flight of stairs. And that time she tried to fix an electrical socket while holding the wires between her teeth. And her obsession with the new neighbor she’s never met — an obsession that led to her getting her hand stuck in his letterbox while trying to spy on a mysterious piece of mail... But all this is nothing compared to the insane things she will do to try to get closer to this man whose secret she now wants to discover. Driven by unbridled inventiveness, intrigue, and attraction to this stranger she lives next to but knows almost nothing about, Julie will take ever-more-delirious risks, until she finally finds the answer to the question that reveals so much: who is it that prompts us to do the stupidest things in our life?
