Романтический эгоист
Фредерик Бегбедер — самая скандальная и шумная из действующих литературных звезд сегодняшней Франции, автор мировых бестселлеров “99 франков”, “Любовь живет три года”, “Каникулы в коме”, “Windows on the World”.
“Романтический эгоист” Бегбедера — это, по его собственным словам, “Лего из Эго”: под маской героя то исповедуется сам автор, то наговаривает на себя выдуманный писатель, пресыщенный славой. Клубы, где флиртует парижская литературная богема, пляжи и дискотеки модных курортов, “горячие кварталы” и престижные отели, светская и художественная жизнь крупнейших мегаполисов, включая Москву, — детали головоломки мелькают вперемешку с остроумными оценками нашей эпохи и ее героев на фоне смутного осознания надвигающегося краха.

То ли Бегбедер исписался, то ли во мне уже пропал дух бунтарства.
