The Fire novel presents the Czech reader for the first time in France by the well -known author Maria Pourchet, whose straightforward, even brutal view of contemporary civilization and original literary style will leave no one cold. The heroes of the story, the manager of the bank, who shares depression from the world of finance only with his dog, and the professor and mother of two daughters Laura, disappointed in their lives full of compromises, reflect in their fates of unfulfilled desires of several generations. The burning story of their passion takes place against the background of Covidal pandemia, environmental efforts to save the planet, global debt and other topics today. The book in which the desire with hell, heat with burnout, fire with ashes and hopelessness with humor, brings more than an unusual reading experience: is a contribution to the diagnosis of our burning epoch.
