"Après le décès de son grand-père, le narrateur réalise l'importance de préserver les instants vécus avec ses proches. Il se rapproche alors de sa grand-mère. Ce roman est le pretexte à une méditation sur le temps, la mémoire, les liens entre générations."
"Tragikomische kroniek van drie generaties van een familie."
"Romain is an aspiring writer who takes a job as a night watchman in a Paris hotel. When his grandfather dies and his father retires, Romain's family is thrown seriously off course, with his parents experiencing a mid-life crisis and his grandmother ditching the retirement home in search of her haunted past."
"Der junge Held dieses Romans lebt in einem Zustand "permanenter Unschlüssigkeit", als kurz hintereinander sein Grossvater stirbt, seine Grossmutter nicht nur ins Altenheim, sondern auch wieder in die Schule, sein Vater in Rente und seine Mutter nach Russland geht. Irgendetwas ist in seine Familie gefahren. Was bleibt ihm anderes übrig, als in den Tiefen der Pariser Nacht seine ruhmreiche Zukunft als Schriftsteller hinter der Rezeption eines kleinen Hotels vorzubereiten? Wenn sich alles verändert, was bisher unverrückbar schien, braucht man schliesslich etwas, was einem Halt gibt. Eine Frau zum Beispiel. Doch wo finden? Auf einer Beerdigung etwa? Wohl kaum. Am Ende kommt doch wieder alles anders. David Foenkinos' neuer Roman ist ein anrührendes, packendes und komisches Buch über das Altern und die alles überdauernde Kraft der Liebe und des Lebens. Dem Anschein einer sich immer stärker verändernden Welt hält der Autor die wesentlichen Dinge unseres Lebens entgegen, die sich wohl nie ändern werden. Manchmal erkennt man das aber erst im Nachhinein. Deswegen ist "Souvenirs" auch eine kleine Schatztruhe der Erinnerungen, die, wenn man sie öffnet, Erinnerungsbilder von Serge Gainsbourg, Marcello Mastroianni, Vincent van Gogh und vielen anderen enthält. David Foenkinos, 1974 geboren, Schriftsteller und Drehbuchautor, studierte Literaturwissenschaften an der Sorbonne und Jazz am CIM. "Souvenirs" ist sein neunter Roman, der in Frankreich erneut ein grosser Erfolg wurde. Seine Bücher sind weltweit in mehr als 20 Sprachen übersetzt. Bei C.H.Beck sind bereits seine Romane "Das erotische Potential meiner Frau" (2005), "Grösster anzunehmender Glücksfall" (2006), "Unsere schönste Trennung" (2010) und zuletzt "Nathalie küsst" (11. Auflage 2012) erschienen. Der Roman wurde von ihm und seinem Bruder Stéphane Foenkinos mit Audrey Tautou in der Rolle der Nathalie verfilmt."
