Paperback. Condición: Fair. "Fabre's unexpectedly touching novel has a laugh of its own behind its low-key, smoothly translated narrative voice . The city it evokes isn't the Paris of tourists but of local people."--The New York Times "Fabre is a genius of these nuanced, interior moments . The story Fabre tells is that of every one of us: looking for meaning in the mundane, moving through our lives, our interactions, as if through the fabric of a dream . How do we live? it asks to consider. And: What does our existence mean?"--Los Angeles Times "Guys Like Me is a short, arresting tale that .not only offers keen insights into the mind of its middle-aged protagonist, but also provides the reader with a unique tour of what everyday life in the low-key suburbs of Paris must truly be like."--Typographical Era "Readers will take pleasure in this well-told tale with a satisfying ending."--Publishers Weekly "The setting may be Paris, but it's not the Paris of grand avenues and pricey cafés.

Paperback. Condición: Good. Pierre is a veteran bartender in a caf in the outskirts of Paris. He observes his customers as they come and go - the young man who drinks beer as he reads Primo Levi, the fellow who from time to time strips down and plunges into the nearby Seine, the few regulars who eat and drink there on credit - sizing them up with great accuracy and empathy. Pierre doesn't look outside more than necessary; he prefers to let the world come to him. Soon, however, the caf must close its doors, and Pierre finds himself at a loss. As we follow his stream of thoughts over three days, Pierre's humanity and profound solitude both emerge.
