Summary
Maylis de Kerangal: Mending the Living
"Mending the Living" is a novel about the heart, a human heart, the heart of a young man who survived his brain death after a fatal car accident one dawn while riding the waves with his friends. Before the next day dawns, that heart, until yesterday his, must find its way to the breast of the woman whom his own heart betrayed. In a race against time are the medical staff and the doctor who must deliver the terrible news of death to the boy's parents and immediately ask them to donate their son's heart for transplantation.
Shocking, tense like the best thriller, a stylistic tour de force, the novel "Fixing the Living" by Maylis de Kerangal is one of the most impressive works of contemporary French prose, the winner of ten literary awards, including the Grand Prix RTL-Lire and the Wellcome Book Prize, and was also in wider selection for the Man Booker International Prize. After the theater, there was also a successful film adaptation, nominated for the César award.
