In the City of Kisses, the shy actor Felix Dern is famous for his voice and his impeccable private life, but he carries a curse: every woman he sleeps with becomes pregnant. When Mouetta expects her sixth child, the novel traces his sexual history and the city's emancipation, between desire, guilt, and the paradoxes of human nature.
Published in 2003 by Viking in London. The work is classified as contemporary literary fiction and romance.
For adult readers interested in contemporary literary fiction and the ambiguities of desire and parenthood.
