«Le dernier modèle» is the literary novel by Franck Maubert, published by Fayard/Mille et une nuits in paperback (128 pages, in French).
The novel reconstructs the relationship between Alberto Giacometti and Caroline, a twenty-year-old woman the artist met in the bars of Montparnasse. Their encounter leads to a turbulent love that lasts until the sculptor's death; Caroline becomes his muse and last model. Franck Maubert, who met her in Nice, recovers a little-known episode from the artist's final years.
Winner of the Prix Renaudot de l'essai in 2012, this novel belongs to the Littérature collection of Mille et une nuits.
Suitable for a general audience, the novel will appeal to readers of literary fiction and those wanting to learn about Giacometti's final years and the Montparnasse scene.
