След хилядите километри път над сушата, подобна на необятен остров, пазена на север от морските води, а на юг - от ... |

Последната творба на Фредерик Бегбеде (р. 1965 г.), Един самотен човек, спокойно би могла да носи заглавие Разказ за моя баща. Фредерик Бегбеде превръща Жан-Мишел Бегбеде в същински герой от роман. Детството му, прекарано в училище, напомнящо затвор със строг режим, сякаш е излязло изпод перото на Дикенс.

Докато с присъщата си хаплива ... |
