«Toute la nuit» is the novel by Philippe Forest, published by Gallimard in paperback (320 pages, in French).
The novel revolves around a farewell ritual between Pauline and her partner: the phrase «Je pense à toi toute la nuit» becomes a talisman against forgetting. From that promise, Forest reflects on the persistence of loving thought, memory, and the impossibility of erasing the presence of someone truly loved.
Subtitled «roman», the novel appeared on 23 March 1999 in Gallimard's Blanche collection.
For a general audience that reads French and seeks contemporary literary fiction.
