«Escalier C» is the novel by Elvire Murail, published by Le Livre de Poche in paperback (254 pages, in French).
In stairwell C of a New York building, neighbours coexist whom the narrator Forster observes with sarcasm and severity: some barely cross paths, others talk, others ignore each other, and among them there are affections and contempts. The dramatic, grotesque and macabre situations that unfold in that community end up unsettling Forster himself.
First novel by Elvire Murail, originally published in 1983 and winner of the Prix du Premier Roman.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in portraits of urban characters and stories with LGBT themes.
Elvire Murail is a French writer, mainly of books for the youth, under the pen name Moka. The daughter of poet Gérard Murail, she is the younger sister of writers Marie-Aude and Lorris Murail, and composer Tristan Murail.
