A noir set in the seediest backwaters of the French publishing industry, The Collaborators tells the story of a hapless drifter who, after years of not particularly heroic effort, finally manages to write a book. A good book? A bad book? Well, it s complicated and soon the complications he s set in motion spiral entirely out of control. Praised by Pierre Bayard in How to Talk About Books You Haven t Read, and finally available in English by one of our greatest translators, The Collaborators is both a sinister thriller and a comedy of outrageous proportions. Under the title Ferdinaud Ce line, The Collaborators was published in French in 1997 to great acclaim.
