Todos aman a Clara is the new novel by David Foenkinos, one of the most widely read and recognized contemporary French authors. After the international success of La delicadeza, the writer returns with a story that combines emotion, irony, and reflection on writing, family, and chance.
Alexis Koskas leads an apparently stable life: he works at a private bank and has a very close relationship with his teenage daughter, Clara. But everything changes when the young woman suffers an accident that leaves her in a coma. While waiting for her recovery, Alexis is forced to face his own life and reconnect with his ex-wife during long hospital visits.
To endure the uncertainty and pain, he begins to write. However, when Clara wakes up, something in her has changed. That awakening opens a new territory of questions and profoundly transforms the relationship between father and daughter.
With his characteristic style, Foenkinos builds a sensitive and intelligent novel that reflects on fate, family bonds, and the power of literature to give meaning to the most difficult moments.
