The A26: Shocking, hilarious and poignant noir. Pascal Garnier

Аннотация:

‘Garnier plunges you into a bizarre, overheated world, seething death, writing, fictions and philosophy. He’s a trippy, sleazy, sly and classy read.’ A. L. KennedyBernard lives with his sister Yolande who hasn't left the house since 1945. Bernard is now in the final months of a terminal illness. With no longer anything to lose, he becomes reckless—and murderous.Locally the A26 is under construction. Concrete still wet, it stands ready to serve as a discrete cemetery for lost girls. "A brilliant exercise in grim and gripping irony, it makes you grin as well as wince."  The Sunday Telegraph "A most wonderfully wry noir murder mystery you'll not soon forget."— Durango Herald "Garnier's sly, cynical take on life will strike a chord with readers of every age."— Publishers Weekly "Ultimately a very dark novel, but a very impressive one."— The Complete Review
