holiday in a Coma & Love Lasts Three Years: two novels by Frederic Beigbeder
One fateful night in a Parisian nightclub sets the stage for stories that explore the depths of modern excess and self-destruction in these novels by award-winning author Frederic Beigbeder. In 'Holiday in a Coma', readers are taken on a whirlwind adventure through the seedy underbelly of high-society Paris, where superficiality reigns supreme. The narrative follows Marc Marronier as he navigates the chaos of The shitter—a satirical nod to the famous Les Bains Douche—with its intimidating bouncers, endless vòng lặp of drugs and drinks, and the desperate pursuit of any available model. Written with a raw, unfiltered passion that mirrors the author's own complex relationship with his surroundings, the story is a catalog of decadence and bravado that will stay with you long after the final page.
In the companion novel, 'Love Lasts Three Years', Marc Marronier attempts to make sense of his failed marriage by proving his theory that love wanes after just three years. The book is a candid, often humorous look at the rollercoaster of his marriage, from extravagant nights out to mundane daily struggles. Beigbeder’s signature wit shines through as he weaves a narrative that is both intimate and biting, filled with sharp observations and occasional moments of surprisingly genuine emotion. These novels offer a compelling glimpse into the lives of those who inhabit the fringes of society, capturing the chaos and contradictions of modern urban existence with both bleakness and dark humor.
