Sundays in August / Patrick Modiano ; translated from the French by Damion Searls. by Modiano, Patrick, 1945- author. New Haven : Yale University Press, [2017] Subjects Necklaces -- Fiction.   Criminals -- Fiction.   Nice (France) -- Fiction. ISBN:  9780300223330 (paperback) 0300223331 (paperback) Series:  Margellos world republic of letters book. Description:  152 pages ; 20 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  Stolen jewels, black markets, hired guns, crossed lovers, unregistered addresses, people gone missing, shadowy figures disappearing in crowds, newspaper stories uncomfortably close and getting closer . . . this ominous novel is Patrick Modiano's most noirish work to date. Set in Nice--a departure from the author's more familiar Paris--this novel evokes the bright sun and dark shadow of the Riviera. Modiano's trademark ability to create a haunting atmosphere is here on full display: readers descend precipitously into a world of mystery, uneasiness, inevitability. A young couple in hiding keeps close watch over a notorious diamond necklace known as the Southern Cross. Its provenance is murky, its whereabouts known only to our hero and heroine, who find themselves trapped by its potential value--and its ultimate cost. Deftly Modiano reaches further and further into the past, revealing the secret histories of the two even as the pressurized present threatens to overwhelm them.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Nanakuli Public Library Adult Fiction Modiano Checked In Add Copy to MyList
