In the final volume of this acclaimed trilogy, Virginie Despentes masterfully concludes this devastating portrait of contemporary French society. Vernon Subutex remains the guru DJ who transports to nirvana, uniting an idealistic community on the margins of society. However, the unexpected death of one of its members jeopardizes the group's continuity. This installment addresses themes such as fear of poverty, racism, discrimination, religious violence, and the collapse of French democracy, all in a context marked by the death of David Bowie and the 2015 attacks in France. The characters move between Paris, Barcelona, Frankfurt, and Dublin, in a drifting Europe.
Virginie Despentes is a French author, screenwriter, director, and actress. She is known for her work exploring gender, sexuality, and people who live in poverty or other marginalised conditions.
