J'ai découvert Pennac par ce livre et en suis devenue une lectrice fidèle, le monde de sa Majesté La Reine Zabo, monde impitoyable de l'édition, c'est tout un poème! Je suis fan décidément! ( )

Une satire du monde littéraire sur le mode de l'écrivain prêt à tout pour publier un roman à succès... Malaussène dans toute sa grandeur de bouc ( )

"L'amour, Malaussène, je vous propose l'amour!" L'amour? J'ai Julie, j'ai Louna, j'ai Thérèse, j'ai Clara, Verdun, le Petit et Jérémy. J'ai Julius et j'ai Belleville...
"Entendons-nous bien, mon petit, je ne vous propose pas la botte; c'est l'amour avec un grand A que je vous offre: tout l'amour du monde!"
Aussi incroyable que cela puisse paraître, j'ai accepté. J'ai eu tort."
Transformé en objet d'adoration universelle par la reine Zabo, éditeur de génie, Benjamin Malaussène va payer au prix fort toutes les passions déchaînées par la parution d'un best-seller dont il est censé être l'auteur.
Vol de manuscrit, vengeance, passion de l'écriture, frénésie des lecteurs, ébullition éditoriale, délires publicitaires, La petite marchande de prose est un feu d'artifice tiré à la gloire du roman. De tous les romans. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 1860465358, Hardcover)

"What I'm offering you is love with a capital 'L,' all the love in the world!"

This is not the sort of offer professional scapegoat and downtrodden publisher Benjamin Malaussne is used to. But his boss, Queen Zabo, the redoubtable doyenne of the Parisian publishing world, has finally offered him a starring role-all he has to do is impersonate the world's best-loved but hitherto anonymous author. Yet things are never quite so simple for Malaussne and his extended family of misfits and chancers. Soon he is in deep: the theft of a manuscript, a frenzied readership, the disarray of his private life, and then a spate of connected murders that threaten to destroy Vendetta Press entirely.

Think of a cross between Diva and Delicatessen, set within the literary intrigue of a publishing house and the multiracial exuberance of low-life Paris, and you will be somewhere near the world of Pennac's Belleville quarter.
