«Un roman français» is the autobiographical novel by Frédéric Beigbeder, published by France Loisirs in hardback (281 pages, in French).
After being arrested for cocaine use in Paris, Beigbeder reconstructs his childhood, his parents' divorce and a family story between traditional bourgeoisie and modern hedonism. The author reflects with melancholy and cynicism on France that hid its lost wars and colonial past, and on identity in globalised capitalism.
