In this book, the narrator accepts a job writing a laudatory authorised biography of a fast-food magnate, whose egotism borders on megalomania. She enters a world of callgirsl, celebrities, investment portfolios and bitter rivalries, where the desire to dominate others motivates every decision.

A trenchant satire of greed and self-interest - in both idealists and tycoons - Lydie Salvayre's latest novel proves her once again to be France's funniest and most insightul critic of modern life.
