«Chamboula» is the novel by Paul Fournel published by Seuil in paperback (352 pages, in French).
In the Village Fondamental, the arrival of a refrigerator and a television disrupts daily life: the village stops talking and falls into melancholy. An after-sales service (SAV) technician exploits the resources and the inhabitants, while Boulot emigrates to France. The branching narrative mixes fable, Oulipian humor and criticism of neocolonization.
Novel originally published in 2007; the paperback edition is part of Seuil's Cadre rouge collection.
A read for fans of contemporary French fiction, playful humor and formal experimentation.
Paul Fournel is a French writer, poet, publisher, and cultural ambassador.
