WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE
Missing, a young girl, Dora Bruder, age 15.
One winter night in 1941, a Jewish girl runs away from her Paris boarding school. Stumbling across her disappearance listed in an old newspaper, Patrick Modiano finds himself propelled on a quest to exhume her fate.
His search will go on to last a decade. Little more will be found, just fragments of a lost family history, a sense of the dark streets of occupied Paris, Dora's name on a list of those sent to Auschwitz. And the spectre of Modiano's own troubled past, from which he can no longer look away.
