Product details

From the author of the novel 'The End of Eddy' In his autobiographical novel 'In the Heart of Violence,' French author Édouard Louis reconstructs the events of a dramatic night that changes his life forever. On a December night at the Place de la République in Paris, Édouard encounters a young man. He actually wants to go home, but they strike up a conversation. It quickly becomes clear that it is a spontaneous meeting. Édouard invites Reda, the son of an immigrant with roots in Algeria, to his small apartment. They talk, they laugh. But what begins as a tender flirtation turns into a night where Reda will threaten Édouard with a weapon. By narrating stories of childhood, desire, migration, and racism, Louis makes invisible forms of violence visible. A novel that, like 'The End of Eddy,' aims straight at the heart of our present - politically.
