«Poids léger» is the novel by Olivier Adam published by Seuil in 2004, in paperback, 162 pages, in French.
Antoine buries strangers by day and boxes by night. Alone and on the edge of the abyss, he can barely cope with his father's death, his sister Claire's distance, and his coach's imminent departure. Between alcohol, tobacco, and fights, he falls apart and risks losing his job, his relationships, and his freedom.
For readers of contemporary French fiction seeking intimate stories about solitude and characters at the limit.
