Patrick Modiano

Honeymoon Patrick Modiano Reprint edition

Modiano, winner of the 2014 Nobel Prize in Literature, constructs "a haunting tale of quiet intensity"; (Review of Contemporary Fiction). It parallels the story of Jean B., a filmmaker who abandons his wife and career to hole up in a Paris hotel, with that of Ingrid and Rigaud, a refugee couple he'd met twenty years before, and whose mystery continues to haunt him.
