When shop-owner Julia Segovia decides that she's going to marry the
handsome if exceedingly young and naive soldier Valentin Bru, he
willingly goes along with her scheme. Little does he know that he
will have to contend with disgruntled in-laws, eccentric locals, a
cunning wife, a shifty career in fortune-telling, the approaching
threat of war with Germany and the mysteries of Parisian public
transport. With a cast of eccentric characters, amusing incidents
and an uplifting tone, The Sunday of Life - its title playfully
alluding to Hegel's theory of history - is a scintillating novel
which showcases Queneau's trademark punning, sly wit and delight in
the absurdity of people and situations.
