This book is a chamber opera for two, the voices of a couple on the verge of breakup exploring all the facets of the feeling of love. For several months, they have continued living together, but they hardly say a word to each other. That night, the two of them, one beside the other but never with the other, pass through all the states and stages of the feeling of love, under the complicit gaze of the reader. With this first novel, Éric Valmir makes his mark as a meticulous observer of the conduct of love, between tenderness and irony. The precision of the depiction of characters and situations, a sense of humor which avoids pathos, a sense for the telling detail, and a remarkably controlled structure: a new novelist of intimate life who shows great promise.
