Publisher's Synopsis
This story takes place in France.
Adam, a depressive mortician, has no place to breathe but the roof of his building. From up there, he contemplates the city in all discretion.
But when, on this same roof, Adam meets Zoë, a suicidal and rebellious young woman who is about to end her life, things suddenly explode. Confrontations, followed by a lot of emotion. The intergenerational conflict offers a significant touch of humor. Between the forty-year-old and the young insolent woman, a new hope is born. What if their hearts started beating again?
This new novel is terribly sensitive. It contains what each one of us dreams of knowing one day: this unexpected spark which gives back a glimmer of hope in a future however condemned to the blackness of the despair.
"Catch the stars" is full of upheaval, and will leave no one indifferent.
"A tasty mix of humor, love and fragile destinies. A remarkable feel of rare accuracy."
