What: In this svelte collection of twelve short stories from Anna Gavalda, translated from French, people's lives can change in an instant. There are missed highway exits, there are love affairs, there are horrible crimes, and there are wild boars and Jaguars.
Comparable to: Once French magazine compared Gavalda to Dorothy Parker, so, sure. Let's go with that.
You might not like it if: You don't fancy first-person narration.
How to get it: Buyable, borrowable, Kindle-able
Connections to previous Wreckage: Read about Dorothy Parker in What Fresh Hell Is This? (Rec. #237). Watch about Dorothy Parker in Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle (Rec. #296).
