Short description. It tells the story of a girl with weight problems and the problems that lead to this condition.
Extensive description. Educated people avoid looking at it, children point the finger at it, hooligans laugh or insult it without regard. Marianne is immensely fat, one of those wobbly moles who are calling attention on the street. She has chosen to leave only at night; She spends her days locked up, working at home and taking care of a young daughter. Or neglecting it, as your neighbor keeps reminding you every day. Because Marianne can be a victim, and it is certainly in a society that sees its 127 kilos as a sacrilege, but it is not a sympathetic character, but a rude, foul-mouthed woman, full of aggressiveness and hatred.
One night, however, he meets a vagabond, a man still young who lost his job and who now sleeps on the street. An outcast too, who speaks to him as a person and with whom he might establish a human bond. Around these two characters, Valérie Tong Cuong builds a tough novel about what it means to be different in a society, like ours, tyrannized by the cult of beauty and the anguish of not living up to and not being loved .
