«Le livre des jours» is the novel by Michael Cunningham, published by Belfond in paperback (347 pages, in French).
Three stories linked by an enigmatic ceramic bowl and by two children, Simon and Lucas, who recite verses by Walt Whitman. Each is set in New York in a different era: at the beginning of the 20th century, at the beginning of the 21st century, and in 2120. The shadow of Whitman and the city of Manhattan serve as a connecting thread.
French translation of «Specimen Days», the original novel by Michael Cunningham (2005), by Anne Damour. Winner of the Ohioana Book Award in 2006.
For readers of literary fiction seeking stories that combine the historical, the contemporary, and science fiction, with New York as the setting.
