An outstanding prize-winning, best-selling French novel. 'This is an extremely beautiful book of unlikely collisions, moments of great tenderness, and awkward truth. I enjoyed it very much' - Audrey Niffenegger, author of The Time Traveller's Wife.
Pierre Peju, writer, philosopher and director of studies at the International College of Philosophy, has written four books. The Girl from the Chartreuse, his latest one, met with an exceptional critical and commercial success in France.
'Peju's real subject is literature itself...Péju treads a fine line
between pretension and profundity, layering his text with many
others from the Gospels to Becket and Borges, but his own words,
weighed against theirs, are rarely found wanting.'
