Houellebecq, metamorphosis ..


Author: Author of elementary particles or of Platform , Michel Houellebecq is a writer missed the French literary landscape? His works are always controversial, the writer magnet shocked by descriptions fairly hardcore sex ... and very pessimistic vision of the contemporary world.
So much for the old Houellebecq, a character not very nice, but obsessed with wielding the pen as a person.
I do not know if this gentleman has been in therapy or if he was finally able to overcome its old demons, but this description is valid at all for his new novel ..

History: Jed, a Parisian artist will know the success with its appeal to Michelin maps.In his travels he meets Beigbeder Michel Houellebecq and ask to write something for his catalog ... It also crosses a Jean-Pierre Pernaud amazing but I say no more read it!

Impressions: This is arguably his best novel, no sex gore here, just gastronomy "hardcore". What has happened to him?? Her character itself is described with great modesty "a loner who stinks a bit." The irony is everywhere, never mean, style and descriptions are beautiful .. What a pleasure to read this book. I felt reading of Michel Deon, with something extra, a nice cynicism author appeased ...
