«L'origine du monde» is the novel by Rezvani published by Actes Sud in paperback (402 pages, in French).
Bergamme, a kleptomaniac and iconoclastic dwarf, starts a fire at the Grand Musée by intervening in masterpieces such as L'Origine du monde. The curator Gerbraun opens the museum's doors to him, and a detective and his talking dog investigate his provocations. Rezvani delivers a satire of museums and of the love of art as a dangerous passion.
The work belongs to the 'Domaine français' collection from Actes Sud; its subtitle is 'Pour une ultime histoire de l'art à propos du “cas Bergamme”'.
For readers of contemporary French fiction interested in a satire on the art world and museums.
