«The List of my Desires» is the contemporary fiction novel by Grégoire Delacourt, published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson in hardback (224 pages, in English).
Jocelyne, a 47-year-old dressmaker in a French village, wins 18 million in the Euromillions draw and doesn't cash the cheque: she writes a list of simple desires. Her sewing blog and her ordinary life make her see that the ordinary may not be so bad. But someone close ends up making the decision for her, with devastating consequences.
The work was originally published in French as «La Liste de mes envies»; this English edition is a translation by Anthea Bell.
For reading groups and readers of contemporary fiction interested in stories about everyday life and the little things.
Grégoire Delacourt is a French advertiser and writer.
