Synopsis The short stories in this collection by French Nobel Laureate Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio are set in a nightmarish ecologically ruined world of concrete projects, poverty, and gang warfare. Clezio's novels have frequently critiqued the excesses of modernity, but perhaps nowhere else does his dark vision of civilization seem so vivid and hellish.
This collection of J. M. G. Le Clézio's stories was first published in 1982.
