Description
The latest novel by Jean-Paul Dubois, laureate of the prestigious Goncourt literary prize, presents an extraordinary theme: the hero Paul shoots two bullets into his father's head – but at a time when his progenitor has been dead for two weeks... The court orders a year of psychotherapy for the offender. The novel 'The Origin of Tears' is then the story that Paul tells his psychiatrist – the story of a frustrated man who has every reason to feel hatred towards his father. With Paul's narration, we also enter a series of other interesting worlds, geographically and temporally distant, and since the main storyline takes place in the 2030s, we also delve into a world of advanced artificial intelligence technologies. Readers of Dubois's books already know that they can expect an intelligent work that is a blend of humor and melancholy, which can be read as a black comedy as well as a burlesque drama.
