Franny Glass and Lane Coutell are the perfect campus couple: beautiful, intelligent, their whole lives ahead of them. But one weekend when Franny is visiting, amid the excitement of the big Yale game, something goes wrong and tensions begin to surface. Are they really such a perfect match after all? Franny's older brother is Zooey. They come from a sophisticated yet highly eccentric family: all seven Glass siblings are former child stars, all strange and enchanting and damaged in their own way. And when Franny's anxiety spirals into a full-blown breakdown, Zooey is the only one who might be able to save her. A novel in two intertwining stories, Franny and Zooey brilliantly captures the emotional strains and traumas of entering adulthood.
Une histoire d'amour complexe, pure et composée qui met en scène les plus jeunes des enfants Glass. Franny passe le week-end avec son petit ami, Lane Coutell. Mais pour survivre dans un monde dont elle perçoit la superficialité, la jeune fille s'est plongée dans une quête mystique qui l'affaiblit jusqu'au malaise. Zooey, le plus jeune des garçons de la famille, aide sa soeur à trouver sa voie. ©Electre 2016
