«Et rien d'autre» is the literary fiction novel by James Salter, published by POINTS in paperback (432 pages, in French).
At the end of the Second World War, aboard an aircraft carrier off Japan, Philip Bowman returns to New York with two obsessions: literature and love. Hired by a publishing house, he discovers the closed world of small post-war publishing houses, where his success is rapid. But love, that ideal he pursues, keeps eluding him.
The cover includes the mention «best foreign novel 2014» from the magazine Lire; the work was originally published in 2013.
For readers of literary and historical fiction who enjoy post-war New York and the contradictions of love and success.
