In late-nineteenth-century Paris, the writer Hubert is shocked to
discover that Icarus, the protagonist of the new novel he's working
on, has vanished. Looking for him among the manuscripts of his
rivals does not solve the mystery, so a detective is hired to find
the runaway character, who is now in Montparnasse, where he learns
to drink absinthe and is picked up by a friendly prostitute. These
hilarious adventures make Queneau's novel, presented in the form of
a script and parodying various genres, one of the best literary
jeux d'esprit in modern literature.
