Philippe Forest's New Novel 'Le Nouvel Amour' Published by Gallimard
Philippe Forest's novel 'Le Nouvel Amour' was released in early September by Gallimard. Forest, whose writing often stems from the death of his daughter—a theme central to his first novel 'L'Enfant éternel'—continues to explore the impossibility of that reality. An essay by Forest, 'Tous les enfants sauf un', was published by the same publisher before the summer. The novel is considered one of the most important of the literary season. An interview with Forest accompanies the release.
