«Qu'ai-je donc fait» is the autobiographical novel by Jean d'Ormesson, published by éditions de Noyelles in paperback (367 pages, in French).
The author makes a vitalist review of his existence and of the things he has loved: nature, art, writers and poets, love, and the search for a hidden god. He interweaves the pleasure of moments with the certainty that time erases everything, and defends a joyful art of living in the face of a cruel world.
Work written in French and published in 2008, within the genre of literary autobiography.
Recommended for readers interested in French autobiography and in the essayistic prose of Jean d'Ormesson.
