«À l'ami qui ne m'a pas sauvé la vie» is the novel by Hervé Guibert, published by Gallimard in paperback (280 pages, in French).
A narrative close to an intimate diary about Guibert's own experience with AIDS: the diagnosis, the progression of the disease, and the unexpected possibility of escaping it. Includes indiscretions about Michel Foucault and Isabelle Adjani and portrays the author's personal relationships during that period.
Originally published in 1990, the edition belongs to Gallimard's Blanche collection and the cover describes it as 'roman'.
For readers of literary fiction and autobiographical narratives, interested in French literature and the memory of the AIDS epidemic.
Hervé Guibert was a French writer, photographer, photography critic and filmmaker. A multidisciplinary artist, his work focused on writing, photography and film, and is closely associated with autofiction and autobiographical writing.
