In Moon in a Dead Eye, from the ‘slyly funny’ [Sunday Times] Pascal Garnier, the inhabitants of a new retirement village find their territory encroached upon when a group of travellers sets up camp on the outskirts.
‘The final descent into violence is worthy of J G Ballard’ The Independent
Given the choice, Martial would not have moved to Les Conviviales. But Odette loved the idea of a brand-new retirement village in the south of France. So that was that. At first it feels like a terrible mistake: they’re the only residents and it’s raining non-stop. Then three neighbours arrive, the sun comes out, and life becomes far more interesting and agreeable.

Giới thiệu về tác giả
Pascal Garnier, who died in March 2010, was a talented novelist, short story writer, children’s author and painter. From his home in the mountains of the Ardèche, he wrote fiction in a noir palette with a cast of characters drawn from ordinary provincial life. Though his writing is often very dark in tone, it sparkles with quirkily beautiful imagery and dry wit. Garnier’s work has been likened to the great thriller writer, Georges Simenon.Buy this ebook and get 1 more FREE!
