About this listen

London, late 1990s. Stan, a young and promising French composer, is invited to arrange the music for a theatrical adaptation of The Picture of Dorian Gray. The play will never be staged, but Stan meets Liv, the love of his life, and their harmonious duo soon becomes a trio with the birth of their beloved daughter, Lisa. Paris, today.

After Liv's accident, Stan returns to France surrounded by darkness, no longer able to compose. He shares his life with Babette, a lifeguard and mother of a boy of Lisa's age, and Laïvely, an AI machine of his own invention endowed with Liv's voice, which he spent entire nights building after her death. . .

But Stan remains haunted by his past. As Laïvely seems to take on a life of its own, memories and reality fade and blur. . . and Stan's new family implodes. . .

This book could have been great but wasn’t. It could have been about moving on and grief but instead it’s a man who thinks his Siri is sentient. I was really disappointed. It’s not good

Blah blah blah
