On ne badine pas avec l’amour
6.30 €
Icon-Icon Opinion :
A book that stems indirectly from one of the greatest love stories of literature – we find in the lines of Musset passages of letters written by George Sand, including the famous line: “All men are liars, fickle, false, talkative, hypocritical, proud and cowardly, contemptible and sensual “
Author : Alfred de Musset
Publishing House : Gallimard
Date of Parution: April 2001
As a young graduate, Perdican returns to the castle and finds his cousin Camille, who has left the convent. We reintroduce ourselves. We pretend not to be interested in feelings. We rather discuss. But we also write. Camille has a friend, claiming to have rejected her cousin. The letter is intercepted by Perdican, and there follows a whole cascade of little lies and manipulations that lead to drama. It is not so simple to love each other and to admit it.

On Vancouver Island stands a hotel with glass walls, only accessible by sea. It is frequented by an exclusive clientele that wants to break with “connected civilization”. There, no wifi, no cell phone, we’re at the end of the world.
Paul, an aspiring composer, and his sister Vincent, an amateur videographer, all work at the Hotel Caiette. One evening, while waiting for the arrival of the New York billionaire Jonathan Alkaitis, the manager discovers with horror a tag engraved on one of the transparent walls: “What if you swallow broken glass?” Who is the author of this threatening graffiti? Is it intended for someone?
In this luxury haven, people meet, destinies are made and fall apart. At the Caiette Hotel, but also in Vancouver and New York, lives will take an unexpected and often dramatic turn. As a butterfly in Brazil can cause a storm in Texas, a drink at the Hotel Caiette bar can ruin an existence…
