L'Anomalie (The Anomaly)
"L'Anomalie" combines different genres, from science-fiction to crime novel, from comedy to romance; for Le Tellier, his story of parallel universes - written before the result of the 2020 US elections - can be read as a parable for life after Donald Trump, "The idea is that since Trump is there and is the cause of the world's destruction, the vision of the book is to propose another version of the world, where Biden is president". Le Tellier is a French linguist, a writer with an abundant body of work both in poetry and fiction, and member of the international literary group Oulipo (Ouvroir de Litterature Potentielle, which translates roughly as "workshop of potential literature").
