Synopsis "La Família Martin: 842 (el Balancí) (in Catalan)"

«Una comèdia bonica i astuta, al més pur estil Foenkinos». Bernard Pivot, Le Journal du Dimanche «David Foenkinos dona el millor de si mateix en aquest llibre juganer, on podem trobar els seus temes predilectes. Una novel·la plena de frescor». Olivia de Lamberterie, Elle «Em costava escriure. Els meus personatges no m’interessaven, em provocaven un vertigen d’avorriment. Vaig pensar que qualsevol relat real podria tenir més interès. Podia baixar al carrer, aturar la primera persona que trobés, demanar-li quatre apunts biogràfics, i estava segur que allò em motivaria més que una nova invenció. És així com van començar les coses. Em vaig dir: baixa al carrer, atura la primera persona que vegis, i ella serà la protagonista del teu llibre». I així és com el narrador escriu sobre la Madeleine, una velleta encantadora que a poc a poc li revela els seus secrets. Com un intrús, l'escriptor s’introdueix en la intimitat familiar dels Martin. Hi trobem la Valérie i la seva introspecció; en Patrick, víctima d’assetjament a la feina, i els seus dos fills adolescents.

David Foenkinos was born in Paris in 1974. A graduate in Literature from the Sorbonne University, he also received solid training as a jazz musician. Among his novels, enthusiastically received by readers and critics worldwide and translated into many languages, stand out The Erotic Potential of My Wife (Roger-Nimier Award 2004), In Case of Happiness (2005), The Memories (2011), I Am Feeling Much Better (2013) and, above all, Delicacy (2009), which won ten awards and was a finalist in the most prestigious literary awards in France, such as the Goncourt, the Renaudot, the Médicis, the Femina, and the Interallié, and which was later made into a film by the author himself and his brother Stéphane. In 2010, Foenkinos, a melomaniac and devoted fan of John Lennon, decided to launch a unique fictional biography, Lennon, with which Alfaguara began publishing his work in 2014. In 2015, he was awarded the Renaudot and Goncourt des lycéens prizes for Charlotte (Alfaguara, 2018), a unique book that rescued the painter Charlotte Salomon from oblivion. Following the success of The Library of Rejected Books (Alfaguara, 2017), adapted into a film, Alfaguara has also published Towards Beauty (2019), Two Sisters (2020), The Martin Family (2021) and, now, Number Two, winner of the Prix Nice Baie des Anges.
