SEROTONIN - MICHEL HOUELLEBECQ KARTONIERT (TB)

LONGLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE 2020 A powerful criticism of modern life by one
of the most provocative and prophetic writers of our age Florent-Claude Labrouste is dying of
sadness. Despised by his girlfriend and on the brink of career failure  his last hope for
relief comes in the form of a newly available antidepressant that alters the brain's release of
serotonin. When he returns to the Normandy countryside in search of serenity  he instead finds
a rural community left behind by globalisation and red-tape agricultural policies  with local
farmers longing for an impossible return towhat they remember as a golden age. 'Despite its
provocations  this is a novel of romantic and sorrowful ideas: Houellebecq as troubadour 
singing lost loves' Rachel Kushner Michel Houellebecq has good claim to be the most interesting
novelist of our times. . . Exhilarating in its nihilism  often very funny and always enjoyable'
