End clap for the

Malaussene

tribe and its host of whimsical people?

After 40 years of adventures and a few misadventures, Daniel Pennac signs the final point of his romantic saga, with the long-awaited release this Thursday of his last and eighth volume

Le Cas Malaussene 2: Terminus Malaussene

.

After the first volume

Au bonheur des ogres

published in 1985 followed by six others until 1999, the writer, as comical as his characters, had abandoned his novel cycle before relaunching it in 2017 with the seventh book

Le Cas Malaussène, volume I: They lied to me

.

In this final opus, printed in 110,000 copies, “Daniel Pennac has chosen to offer his readers a finale in the form of a hilarious apocalypse, which will be remembered,” according to his publisher Gallimard.

A last lap for the crazy clan of Benjamin Malaussene, Queen Zabo or Verdun.

The end of a romantic cycle that will be missed by many readers.
