In these nine unforgettable and impressionistic 'tales of little madness' the Nobel Prize-winning author Le Cl zio explores how the physical sensations we experience every day can be as strong as feelings of love or hate with their power to bring chaos to our lives. In 'The Day that Beaumont became Acquainted with his Pain' a man with toothache spends the night seeking ways to disown his throbbing jaw; in 'Fever' Roch finds his mind transported by sunstroke; while in 'A Day of Old Age' little Joseph tries to comprehend the physical suffering of a dying old woman. Set in a timeless spaceless universe these experimental and haunting works portray the landscape of the human consciousness with dazzling verbal dexterity and power.

Über den Autor
J.M.G. Le Clézio was born on 13 April 1940 in Nice and was educated at the University College of Nice and at Bristol and London universities. His knowledge of English enabled him to work closely with his translator on his debut novel, The Interrogation, which won the Prix Renaudot in 1963. Since then he has written over forty highly acclaimed books and has been translated into thirty-six languages. The Interrogation is published by Penguin and three of his early novels are now Penguin Modern Classics: The Flood, Terra Amata and Fever. Le Clézio divides his time between France (Nice, Paris and Brittany), New Mexico and Mauritius. In 2008 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.
