«La ligne de courtoisie» is the literary fiction novel by Nicolas Fargues, published by Folio in 2013 in paperback (160 pages, in French).
The novel follows a man who feels lonely and misunderstood and travels to India seeking a new beginning; his attempts to please and satisfy others do not achieve the expected results. Through this experience, the story reflects on courtesy, submission and the contradictions of human relationships, with a lucid and sharp style that portrays the weakness and cowardice of the characters.
