| Portrait of the Writer as a Domesticated Animal, By Lydie Salvayre
Portrait of the Writer as a Domesticated Animal, as in the French writer Lydie Salvayre’s other novels, treats us to a meditative work of fiction narrated by someone trying to find their foothold in the void. This time, Salvayre’s void is high finance and the “free market”. An unnamed female narrator has agreed to write the authorised biography of the richest man in the world, a fast-food magnate called Tobold the Hamburger King.
