Edition de 1982. Aux environs de Paris, le collège de Valvert, surnommé le Château en raison de son parc, de ses pavillons et de ses bois, a pour pensionnaires de «braves garçons» plus ou moins abandonnés par leurs familles - des gens riches ou ruinés, instables, cosmopolites, suspects. Ils y poursuivent leurs études en nouant des amitiés, soit entre eux, soit avec leurs professeurs tout aussi pittoresques. Puis la vie les disperse.Vingt ans passent. Grâce à sa mémoire en pointe sèche et à sa curiosité, le narrateur - qui est peut-être Modiano lui-même - recompose l'atmosphère ancienne tout en menant une sorte d'enquête sur ce que le temps a pu faire de ses anciens camarades.Ces souvenirs rejoignent sans cesse le présent, au fil d'une réalité faite de rêve et de nostalgie.

About the Author:
PATRICK MODIANO was born in 1945 in a suburb of Paris and grew up in various locations throughout France. In 1967, he published his first novel, La Place de l'etoile, to great acclaim. Since then, he has published over twenty novels including the Goncourt Prize winning Rue des boutiques obscures (translated as Missing Person), Dora Bruder, and Les Boulevards des ceintures (translated as Ring Roads) as well as the memoir Un Pedigree and a children's book, Catherine Certitude. He collaborated with Louis Malle on the screenplay for the film Lacombe Lucien. In 2014, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. The Swedish Academy cited the art of memory with which he has evoked the most ungraspable human destinies and uncovered the life-world of the Occupation, calling him a Marcel Proust of our time.
