"Winner of France's prestigious Goncourt Prize and runaway international bestseller, I'm Gone, has been hailed as 'Mesmerizing' by booklist and 'Crisp and Erudite' by the Wall Street Journal. For anyone who has yet to discover Echenoz's distinctive literary talents, I'm Gone serves as ideal introduction to his sly wit, unique voice, colourful imagination, and fanciful manipulation of narrative convention. I'm Gone is nothing less than a 'Man against nature' tale, heist caper, art world satire, and love story -- all rolled into one deliriously entertaining novel."
