Pourquoi le narrateur a-t-il fui les bords de la Marne avec Sylvia pour se cacher à Nice ? D'où vient le diamant la Croix du Sud, la seule chose dure et consistante de leur vie et qui, peut-être, leur porte malheur ? De quoi est mort l'acteur populaire Aimos ? Qui sont les Neal, et pourquoi, de leur villa délabrée, s'intéressent-ils de si près à Sylvia, au narrateur, à la Croix du Sud ? Et Sylvia ? A-t-elle été l'épouse de Villecourt ? Et Villecourt ? Que vient-il faire à Nice, lui aussi, à l'heure de sa déchéance ?...À travers toutes ces énigmes qui s'entrecroisent, un roman d'amour se dessine, empreint d'un charme qui hante le lecteur pendant longtemps.

PATRICK MODIANO was born in 1945 in a suburb of Paris and grew up in various locations throughout France. In 1967, he published his first novel, La Place de l'etoile, to great acclaim. Since then, he has published over twenty novels including the Goncourt Prize winning Rue des boutiques obscures (translated as Missing Person), Dora Bruder, and Les Boulevards des ceintures (translated as Ring Roads) as well as the memoir Un Pedigree and a children's book, Catherine Certitude. He collaborated with Louis Malle on the screenplay for the film Lacombe Lucien. In 2014, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. The Swedish Academy cited the art of memory with which he has evoked the most ungraspable human destinies and uncovered the life-world of the Occupation, calling him a Marcel Proust of our time.
