Meet Vanessa Salomon, a privileged and misanthropic French-American translator hailing from a wealthy Parisian family. The only man Vanessa ever loved recently killed himself by jumping off the roof of her building. Her twin sister is a famous movie star, which Vanessa resents deeply and daily.
As soon as she agrees to meet this writer, however, her other, more obscure project begins to fight back--leading Vanessa down into a literary hell of traps and con games and sadism and doppelgangers and mystic visions and strange assignations and, finally, the secret of life itself.Peppered It's a full life.Vanessa has just started working on an English translation of a titillating, experimental thriller by a dead author when she's offered a more prominent gig: translating the latest book by an Extremely Famous French Writer who is not in any way based on Michel Houellebecq.
