«Un parfum de jasmin» is a collection of nine short stories by Michel Déon, published by Succès du livre éditions in paperback (188 pages, in French).
Nine tales about people who stay silent: reserved characters, trapped by a suffocating secret or in a dream impossible to share. What is left unsaid weighs more than what is said. Sometimes, after crossing a labyrinth, the light of day frees them and they can speak, that is, love instead of hurting each other with silence.
The work originally appeared in 1978; this paperback edition dates from 2009 and was published by Succès du livre éditions.
For readers of French fiction interested in stories about lack of communication and what remains unsaid.
Michel Déon was a French novelist and literary columnist. He published over 50 works and was the recipient of numerous awards, including the Prix Interallié for his 1970 novel, Les Poneys sauvages.
