Description
With narrator Paul and his close ones, we glimpse into different environments and places around the world. France, Denmark, Canada, a church, a residential complex, a gambling den, or a prison – everywhere resonates the ferment of the times, affecting the fate of each of them. Paul's father – a Danish pastor, mother – an enterprising beauty, half-Indian and a pilot, fellow inmate Patrik – a rabid Hells Angel… Such extraordinary characters create the intimate world of the hero, who experiences moments of happiness and falls, dramas and injustices with them, all while being accompanied by a subtle ironic humor. A gripping, plot-rich, emotionally rich, and intelligent novel shows the world and people as they are: nothing and no one is just black or white. And it is this diversity that binds a person to life and the reader to this book. For the novel "We All Live Differently in This World," the author received the Goncourt Prize in 2019.
