Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Winner of Franceâs prestigious Prix Goncourt and a runaway bestseller, Jean Echenozâs Iâm Gone is the ideal introduction to the sly wit, unique voice, and colorful imagination of âthe master magician of the contemporary French novelâ (The Washington Post). Nothing less than a heist caper, an Arctic adventure story, a biting satire of the art world, and a meditation on love and lust and middle age all rolled into one fast-paced, unpredictable, and deliriously entertaining novel, Iâm Gone tells the story of an urbane art and antiques dealer who abandons his wife and career to pursue a memorably pathetic international crime spree.
âCrisp and eruditeâ (The Wall Street Journal), âseductive and delicately ironicâ (The Economist), and with an unexpected sting in its tail, Iâm Goneâtranslated by Mark Polizzottiâis a dazzling, postmodern subversion of narrative conventions and an amused look at the absurdities of modern life. With a wink and a nod and a keen eye for the droll detail, Echenoz invites the reader âto enjoy Iâm Gone in the same devil-may-care spirit in which it is offeredâ (The Boston Sunday Globe).
