Description
The novel Fire introduces to the Czech reader the already well-known author Maria Pourchet, whose straightforward, almost brutal view of contemporary civilization and original literary style will leave no one indifferent. The heroes of the story, bank manager Clément, who shares the depressions of the financial world only with his dog, and professor and mother of two daughters Laura, disappointed with her life full of compromises, reflect in their fates the unfulfilled desires of more generations. The burning story of their passion unfolds against the backdrop of the COVID pandemic, ecological efforts to save the planet, global indebtedness, and other contemporary issues. A book where desire clashes with hell, heat with burnout, fire with ash, and hopelessness with humor, offers more than an extraordinary reading experience: it is a contribution to the diagnosis of our pressing epoch.
