Un roman français (A French Novel) is an autobiographical novel. The story of a man whose heart is broken when left by his cynical father and who becomes a sensualist by way of revenge. Beigbeder’s work depicts a country that lost two wars by pretending it had won and its colonial empire by pretending that it made no difference to its importance. This is the story of a new humanity, or how Catholic monarchists have become globalized capitalists.
