Пена дней

Boris Vian wrote prose and poetry, worked as a journalist, wrote scripts and acted in films (one and a half dozen films, by the way), sang and composed songs (there are about four hundred in total). It is a rare case when intellectual prose turns out to be also funny, but this is precisely the main work of Boris Vian “Foam of Days”. A fascinating, phantasmagoric, enchanting mystery novel is still being printed all over the world in millions of copies. It is no coincidence that F. Begbeder put it in the top ten of his world literary hit parade.
