Synopsis
The Scream starts as sci-fi and ends as a realization that despair can shape the world to the point where it becomes unrecognizable. Through Laurent Graff’s irreproachable style, the reader gets trapped in the painfully poetic world embodied by the empty highway; a metaphor which unfolds until the point where reality becomes stranger and indeed crueler than fiction.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The apparently simple story of a toll-collector who works in a booth on the motorway, watching people come and go, while his life remains static. But then an invisible force begins taking over, its only tell-tale sign, a terrible, obliterating sound like a scream, that seems to come from nowhere. As time goes by, the flow of traffic on the motorway slows and diminishes. The world appears to be coming to an end.An ode to love and loss comparable to the work of Samuel Beckett, in which everything is both ordinary and extraordinary and every man is truly an island. Halfway between Beckett and Camus, with a darkly comic, absurd and imaginative touch. 'The Scream' depicts a world where almost everyone has died, questioning the meaning of life - or the lack of meaning - in a deserted world. This Short novella is ideal for long journeys. Perfect for Travel bookshops and motorway service stations. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781906582258
