«Fendre l'armure» is a book of seven short stories by Anna Gavalda, published by Le Dilettante in paperback (284 pages, in French).
The book brings together seven first-person stories featuring ordinary people at a moment of solitude and fragility. Almost all of them take place at night, when they can barely tell darkness from day, and as they confide they try to understand themselves and break their emotional armour. Not all succeed, but the author observes them with empathy.
The stories included are «L'amour courtois», «La Maquisarde», «Mon chien va mourir», «Happy Meal», «Mes points de vie», «Le Fantassin» and «Un garçon».
For readers of contemporary fiction and fans of Anna Gavalda, interested in short stories about solitude and intimacy.
