Prétextat Tach, Nobel Prize winner and among the worlds most popular authors, has two months to live.
He has actually remained in seclusion for years, declining interviews and public looks.
But as news of his impending death becomes public, brave journalists from around the globe flock to his house in pursuit of an interview with the evasive author.One after the other they find that, far from being the literary luminary they envisioned, Tach has become an overweight misogynist, a petulant bigot, an embittered, and disgusting madman.

Her concerns and the authors biting reactions fly in a triumph of brilliant repartee, and Tach is caused a definitive fight with his past, while Nina finds that in love absolutely nothing is ever as simple as it seems.The novel was adapted for film by François Ruggieri in 1999.
It starred Jean Yanne as Prétextat Tach, Barbara Schulz as Nina, in addition to Catherine Hiegel, Sophie Broustal, Jean Prat and Richard Gotainer.Photo: Front cover of the Persian edition of Amelie Nothombs unique Hygiene and the Assassin .
