«Métaphysique des tubes» is the autobiographical novel by Amélie Nothomb, published by Albin Michel in paperback (180 pages, in French).
The narrator recalls her first three years of life in Japan, when she perceived herself as an inert and divine being, until the awakening that leads her to discover language, family and the world. With irony, the Belgian author constructs a story about childhood and the formation of identity.
Novel originally published in 2000 by Albin Michel within its French literature collection. The back cover quotes «Ensuite, il ne s'est plus rien passé.»
