La nuit américaine

Synopsis: "Servais Mont, a photojournalist, and Nadine Chevalier, an actress, meet one morning, in indifference. He photographs her - poorly - leaves her and never forgets her. Someone, somewhere, exists for him. Among his friends, an intellectual dies of disgust, an extra becomes a "star", an isolated old economist, accompanied by a cocker spaniel named Delilah, invents a philosophy, a German actor learns to exorcise his fear of the "working masses". Mont sees them, catches glimpses of them, photographs them. We see them clearly.Yet, he only thinks of Nadine Chevalier, he journeys towards her, taking the narrowest of roads, that of art. Art, which one character will say is dead and another thinks will never be dead enough. This fast-paced novel, driven by multiple perspectives and set in various circles (theater, newspapers, cinema), only discovers slowness on the last page: the time to love, fortunately."
