MICHEL HOUELLEBECQ ÄR TILLBAKA! NU TILLSAMMANS MED GÉRARD DEPARDIEU!
Fem år efter Kidnappningen av Michel Houellebecq återvänder den kontroversielle författaren i ännu en film som dryper av misantropi, flegmatisk levnadsvisdom och frustande skratt. Många av de sistnämnda kommer givetvis genom Depardieus bacchanaliska närvaro. De franska giganterna möts av en slump på ett spakomplex i Cabourg (en ort berömd genom Marcel Prousts skriverier) där de med gemensamma krafter överlever den påtvingade hälsoregimen tack vare insmugglade cigaretter och sprit samt delade hågkomster från forna sexuella erövringar.
Michel Houellebecq är den franska samtidslitteraturens mest hyllade namn som alltsedan debuten med den biografiska essän ‘H. P. Lovecraft – Emot världen, emot livet’ blivit vida läst, prisad och översatt. Hans roman ‘Underkastelse’, om ett framtida muslimskt maktövertagande i Frankrike, blev extra laddad då dess lansering sammanföll med den blodiga attacken mot satirtidskriften Charlie Hebdo.
