В погоне за красотой

Antoine Duris, a professor at the Lyon Academy of Fine Arts, a favorite among colleagues and students, suddenly quits his job, leaves for Paris without leaving a new address, and takes a job as a curator at the Orsay Museum.... He spends his days sitting in the museum hall, studying the works of Modigliani, avoiding questions, and generally preferring not to talk. This man clearly has something to hide — but what happened? It's not easy to explain, and it will take a lot of sensitivity and patience for Antoine to be able to return, understand, and accept the painful story that drove him away from home. In this story, narrated by David Foenkinos — a writer, screenwriter, musician, favorite of reading and film audiences, author of more than two dozen books translated into forty languages — there will be a young artist, a true talent, a broken fate, human fragility, and love, and what passes for love, and overcoming grief, and inevitable beauty.
