Вечная жизнь

The hero of Frederic Begbeder's new novel is no longer the same as we saw him in "99 francs" or "Love lives for three years". He is a well-known television journalist, father of two lovely daughters, and really wants to stay young - if not to gain immortality, then in any case to prolong life indefinitely. For him personally, this is super relevant, especially considering that his wife is young and beautiful. And now, at an age when others are already beginning to think about the soul, the new Dorian Gray rushes to eternal youth. Death, in his opinion, is just a problem that needs to be technically adjusted. The goal is set, and the main character, his ten-year-old daughter Romi and their companion robot named Pepper set off on a journey. Paris, Geneva, a lake in the Alps, Jerusalem, New York... Will he really be able to extend his life to three hundred years? Let's see!
