Geraldine's heart has been broken too many times, but that doesn't stop her searching for the love of her life. Born and brought up in Ireland, Geraldine longs to break away from her roots and traditions and make her own way in life, but it's not that simple. Realising that trying to be a teenager again with her daughter won't work, and that a string of empty relationships and sexual encounters won't lead to true love, Geraldine makes a break for it and takes a trip to India. In the sensual mix of colours, sounds and cultures of the Far East, she undergoes a reawakening of her yearnings and finds herself questioning her motives. Crossing social boundaries to explore her desires she finds satisfaction and answers in unexpected places.This tale of searching and yearning is a tender and frank account of one woman's search for her own personal Nirvana, and the effects on her and those around her as she pursues a greater understanding of who she is.
The daring, mischievous micro-essays of award-winning French humorist Éric Chevillard, published in English for the first time Éric Chevillard is one of France’s leading stylists and thinkers, an endlessly inventive observer of the everyday whose erudition and imagination honor the legacy of Swift and Voltaire—with some good-natured postmodern twists. This ensemble of comic miniatures compiles reflections on chairs, stairs, stones, goldfish, objects found, strangers observed, scenarios imagined, reasonable premises taken to absurd conclusions, and vice versa. The author erects a mental museum for his favorite artworks, only to find it swarming with tourists. He attends a harpsichord recital and lets his passions flare. He happens upon a piece of paper and imagines its sordid back story. He wonders if Hegel’s cap, on display in Stuttgart, is really worth the trip. Throughout, Chevillard’s powers of observation chime with his verbal acrobatics. His gaze—initially superficial, then deeply attentive, then practically sociopathic—manages time and again to defamiliarize the familiar with a coherent and charismatic charm. Daniel Levin Becker’s translation deftly renders the marvels of the original, and a foreword by Daniel Medin offers rich contextual commentary, making a vital wing of French literature and humor newly accessible in English.
