Nobel laureate Patrick Modianos spellbinding tale of adolescent schoolmates and the vicissitudes of fateAs a boarding school student in the early 1960s, Patrick Modiano lived among the troubled teenage sons of wealthy but selfinvolved parents. In this mesmerizing novel, Modiano weaves together a series of exquisitely crafted stories about such jettisoned boys at the exclusive Valvert School on the outskirts of Paris: abandoned children of privilege, left to create new family ties among themselves. Misfits and heroes, sports champions and goodhearted chums, the boys of Valvert misbehave, run away, get expelled, and engage in various forms of delinquency and disappearance. They emerge into adulthood tragically damaged, still tethered to their adolescent selves, powerless to escape the central loneliness of their lives in an everdarkening spiral of selfdelusion and grim consequence.A meditation on nostalgia, the pitfalls of privilege, and the vicissitudes of fate, this book fully demonstrates the powerful mix of sadness, mystery, wonder, and ominous danger that characterizes Modianos most rewarding fiction.Special feature: J. M. G. Le Clzios foreword, here in English for the first time, provides a rare and insightful appreciation of one Nobel laureate by another.
