Book Discussion of “Ballerina” by Patrick Modiano
March 19 @ 6:00 pm
The House of Books will hold a casual discussion of Patrick Modiano’s book, “Ballerina,” Wednesday, March 19, at 6 p.m. at the bookstore, 10 North Main St.
A critically acclaimed #1 bestseller in France—a novel of art, desire, and time lost and regained, from Nobel Prize winner Patrick Modiano.
In the book, a young Parisian dancer and single mother, who might or might not be the narrator’s love interest, is revisited by menacing figures from her past, even as she tries to escape that past through her art.
Set in the shimmering world of the Paris ballet, a world populated by giants such as Balanchine and Nureyev, “Ballerina” revisits the themes of memory, desire and ineffable danger that have become hallmarks of Modiano’s fiction.
