Everyday Mathilde takes the Metro then the commuter train to the office of a large multi national where she works in the marketing department Every day the same routine the same trains But something happened a while ago she dared to voice a different opinion from her moody boss Jacques Bit by bit she finds herself frozen out of everything with no work to do Thibault is a paramedic Every day he drives to the addresses he receives from his controller The city spares him no grief traffic jams elusive parking spaces delivery trucks blocking his route He is well aware that he may be the only human being many of the people he visits will see for the entire day and is well acquainted with the symptomatic illnesses the major disasters the hustle and bustle and of course the immense pervading loneliness of the city Before one day in May Mathilde and Thibault had never met They were just two anonymous figures in a crowd pushed and shoved and pressured continuously by the loveless urban world Yayınevi BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING Yazar DELPHINE DE VIGAN Dil İNGİLİZCE Sayfa Sayısı 257 SAYFA Yıl 2012
