do if your life is no longer your own? When flight Air France 006
enters a terrifying storm, the plane - inexplicably - duplicates.
For every passenger on board that day, there are now two - a double
with the same mind, body and memories. Just one thing sets them
apart. One plane leaves the storm in March. The other doesn't land
until June. For world leaders, the emergence of the June flight
raises serious alarms. No science, faith, or protocol can explain
this unprecedented event. But for the passengers, a bigger question
is at stake. What happens to them, now that their life is shared?
What happens to those who land in June, when their March doubles
make decisions that will change their lives forever? And as the
doubles prepare to meet, they have an extraordinary decision to
make. If there are two of them, and just one life - who gets to
live it? A runaway bestseller and winner of the 2020 Prix Goncourt,
The Anomaly is a genre-defying, whip-smart novel that explores the
very essence of who we are. 'It's dizzying, exhilarating,
brilliant!' Nicholas Carreau, Europe 1 'This novel is an exquisite,
insane surprise. Quite simply astounding' Le Journal du Dimanche
'Le Tellier, throughout this flight, deposits on the tarmac his
stunned reader, ready to applaud' L'Opinion 'The novel is a tour de
force' Toutle La Culture
"Any man--or woman--who wants to hear nothing--or no more--about
love should put this book down."
Anna and Louise could be sisters, but they don't know each other.
They are both married with children, and for the most part, they
are happy. On almost the same day, Anna, a psychiatrist, crosses
paths with Yves, a writer, while Louise, a lawyer, meets Anna's
analyst, Thomas. Love at first sight is still possible for those
into their forties and long-married. But when you have already
mapped out a life path, a passionate affair can come at a high
price. For our four characters, their lives are unexpectedly turned
upside down by the deliciously inconvenient arrival of love. For
Anna, meeting Yves has brought a flurry of excitement to her life
and made her question her values, her reliable husband, and her
responsibilities to her children. For Louise, a successful career
woman in a stable and comfortable marriage, her routine is uprooted
by the youthful passion she feels for Thomas. Thought-provoking,
sophisticated, and, above all, amusing, "Enough About Love"
captures the euphoria of desire through tender and unflinching
portraits of husbands, wives, and lovers.
