Book #159 - Life is Good by Alex Capus
Tuesday, February 13th, 2024 @ 19:00
Maison Internationale des Associations, Rue des Savoises 15, salle Albert Jacquard, Geneva
When his beloved wife takes a work assignment in Paris, Max is left alone for the first time in decades. In her absence, he finds companionship – and antagonism – in the eccentric band of regulars who drink at his neighbourhood bar, revelling equally in small pleasures and trivial squabbles. Winner of our 'exophonica' book selection, Alex Capus’ contemplative novel is a story of trust, longevity and love.
