This is an automatically translated description
After being arrested for cocaine use, Begbeder is taken to a police station, where he promises himself to write a book the first night to overcome a claustrophobic attack. He begins to recall the origins of his family, the meeting of his parents and their quick divorce, his life with his mother and father. Soon after, he is transferred to the prefecture by the Parisian prosecutor, and on the second night Begbeder is saved by remembering his own divorce, his relationship with his daughter Chloe, rethinking his life and leaving prison as a different man. This autobiographical novel, which won the Renodo Literary Prize, is considered to be perhaps the author's best work.
