Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Named a Best Book of 2026 So Far by The New YorkerViolaine Huisman explores and contests the myths surrounding the great men of her family, using fiction where the official archives fall silent. The Monuments of Paris is a moving elegy for her accomplished, mercurial, outrageous fatherand a… beautiful act of disobedience. Ben Lerner, author of Transcription and The Topeka SchoolIn Violaine Huisman's captivating novel, the real monuments of Paris are not its buildings, but its peoplea grand, multigenerational family saga, blending the history of France with intimate personal narratives. Anne Berest, author of The PostcardA remarkable novel drawn from life about a Frenchwomans efforts to come to terms with the legacy of her father and grandfather, powerful forces who left a mark on their countrys culture but whose incorrigible womanizing also left a complex mark on their wives and childrenViolaine Huisman grew up in Paris with her beautiful, bipolar mother the subject of Huismans acclaimed debut novel The Book of Mother and her iconoclastic, flamboyant father, whose self-dramatization made him a formidable raconteur and a questionable parent. The one constant in her fathers personal narrative was his obsession with his childhood during the Vichy regime in France and of his father Georges, long dead, a Belgian Jew whose heroic and tragic biography had taken on the trappings of family myth. In The Monuments of Paris, Huisman transforms these complex layers of history into a moving fiction about exile and belonging, about the lies families are built on and the truths they hold dear.As the novel opens, Violaine returns to Paris from her adopted home of New York City to visit her dying father for the last time. And as he once again tells the story of his fathers rise and fall during the Second World War, Violaine becomes herself obsessed with this myth of her grandfather Georgesand with the nearly erased story of the most significant of his many mistresses, a beautiful and aristocratic woman named Choute, who bears a strange resemblance to her own mother. With the help of a local historian, she sets out to hunt down the truth as it might be known, and in so doing creates the necessary and deeply compelling fiction that is this singular book.In prose as elegant as it is precise, The Monuments of Paris draws a haunting portrait of twentieth-century France through the outsized ambitions, infidelities, and tragedies of the authors own family, both real and imagined. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
