  • MediaDB / «What catches your eye” Gregoire Delacour: download fb2, read online

    About the book: 2015 / The second novel by the French prose writer Gregoire Delacour is not much like the first (“The Box of Wishes”), but he is just as talented and original . In addition, a high-profile scandal is associated with him - actress Scarlett Johansson sued Delacour for using her name in his novel. Fortunately, the conflict has been resolved, and readers around the world can enjoy Gregoire Delacour's exquisite and subtle book. In the first three weeks of sales in France, 93 thousand copies were purchased. This novel may seem simple, but this simplicity is deceptive. Arthur Dreyfuss is twenty. He is a simple mechanic. He likes big breasts and the poetry of the little-known poet Jean Follin. Jeanine Fucampre is twenty-six and looks remarkably like Scarlett Johansson. One day they will meet, and something will happen, after which Scarlett Johansson will cease to exist in Dreyfuss's mind.
