L'Empire du bien n'est pas un essai, c'est une charge, une provocation, un éclat de rire grinçantlancé contre le conformisme du monde moderne. Philippe Muray y démonte avec une ironiecinglante les travers d'une époque où le divertissement se confond avec la morale, où la critique est suspecte, où l'enthousiasme obligatoire dicte les règles. Dans la langue au panache aussisuperbe qu'excessif d'un moraliste sous nicotine, Muray s'attaque à une société qui transforme touten fête forcée et où la liberté de penser s'efface derrière le masque du bonheur collectif.

A seemingly unremarkable woman in her sixties stows away on dozens of flights. Inspired by a true story, THE SERIAL STOWAWAY celebrates the audacity of her tactics and the absurdity of her encounters, including a scholar of shrugging, a protester suing the CIA for implanting images in his brain, and the forgotten half of a comedy duo looking to resuscitate her career on reality TV. Comic and penetrating, this novel portrays the strength that can hide in invisibility.

Walter Schuler was undeniably dead, and there was no getting around that fact. But what led to his demise? Was there a goose involved in some way?

As he rests in the deep freezer of his mansion, alongside a dead deer head that seems to have its own grievances with him, these are the kinds of questions he finds himself pondering.
