The first lines of Le quai de Ouistreham (which means “the Ouistreham quay”) immediately announce the general theme of the book. “The ‘credit crunch’. That’s what everyone is talking about, without really knowing what to say about it, or how to approach the subject.”

However, though the credit crunch is a subject that hovers in your mind throughout the whole book, what this piece of investigative journalism really is about is how people at the bottom of the social ladder, with no diplomas or valuable work experience, deal with unemployment while still desperately trying to get a job.

Blue Bay Palace is narrated by Maya, a girl from the wrong side of the tracks in Mauritius. Blue Bay sounds like it might be a decent place to grow up, but it's a poor little corner of this paradise, the side of the village where no one, for example has a car. Maya had ambitions to get out, but a day after she turned sixteen she met Dave, the spoilt and rich son of a Brahman family from Mahébourg ("It was only half an hour away from Blue Bay, but another world"). And so she too goes to work at Le Paradis, the resort where Dave works -- the hotel where he is, in fact, Maya's father's boss.

In The Last Brother by Nathacha Appanah, 1944 is coming to a close and nine-year-old Raj is unaware of the war devastating the rest of the world. He lives in Mauritius, a remote island in the Indian Ocean, where survival is a daily struggle for his family. When a brutal beating lands Raj in the hospital of the prison camp where his father is a guard, he meets a mysterious boy his own age. David is a refugee, one of a group of Jewish exiles whose harrowing journey took them from Nazi occupied Europe to Palestine, where they were refused entry and sent on to indefinite detainment in Mauritius.

In July 1891, Arthur Rimbaud returns from Africa seriously ill. The furious poet decides to spend the last days of his life with his sister Isabelle. How can we explain this reconciliation? The mystery remains... Hospitalized in Marseille, he is at the end of his rope, with no strength left. The infection in his leg is so severe that it has to be amputated. To convalesce, he has no choice but to return to Charleville, to his childhood home. His mother, the terrible and ferocious Vitalie, hardly speaks to him through the long weeks of his agony. It is Isabelle, his young sister, who welcomes him, cares for him, comforts him. She goes with him when he decides against all reason to return to Africa. It is in her arms that he dies in Marseille on 10 November 1891.Since there is no evidence about what happened and what was said between the brother and the sister during those weeks, Philippe Besson has decided to invent it, and has chosen Isabelle's point of view to tell the tale. It is an audacious risk that succeeds. Through the pages of a fictitious private diary, he presents an indirect and tragic portrait of a woman overshadowed by her brilliant and scandalous brother. Devoted until the poet's last breath, Isabelle conscientiously collects his final confessions about his life, his loves, his poetry. But what does she understand, this virgin steeped in religion? And does she already know that she will betray him, later, when it comes time to take care of posterity? Torn between her love and her doubts, her admiration and her frustrations, Besson's Isabelle gradually appears as the sacrificial figure in the mythical struggle between the poet and his mother.
After the success of A Boy from Italy, the film adaptation of His Brotherby Patrice Chéreau, the 2003 RTL-Lire grand prize for Late Autumn, and the numerous translations of his books, Philippe Besson confirms his precocious rise to prominence.

The novel presents an engaging extraterrestrial, the Euguelion of the title (pronounced you-gaily-un, the name means "the bringer of good news"), who visits the Earth. Through the eyes of this sister from another planet--one eye happy, one sad--we are given a wickedly witty portrait of the situation of women in our world. "To resist is good," proclaims the Euguelion, "to transgress is better."
