At the age of eight, Guélao discovers he has a gift: the ability to make others laugh. Later, he decides to become a comedian. But is that really a profession? And what do you do when the lights go out and loneliness comes knocking without asking your opinion? In Seul en scène, Éric Metzger writes the novel of the stand-up artist, that modern hero who, from comedy clubs to television sets, constantly risks his reputation on social media. A novel like a game of hide-and-seek, between humor and melancholy.

The author

Born in 1984, Eric Metzger has blue eyes and a bad haircut. For the past few years, he has taken a step back from his media life and spends his days drinking coffee, cycling, reading, writing, eating cookies and drinking good wine. Les écailles de l’amer Léthé is his fifth novel.
