La métamorphose d'Edgar Kosma

A solitary and narcissistic writer in the middle of a midlife crisis, Edgar Kosma suddenly feels the urge to step out of his comfort zone and take on a new challenge.

At an age when people usually turn to psychoanalysis or lawnmowers, this forty-something dandy decides instead to throw himself, with naivety, clumsiness, and without really knowing where to begin, into the ruthless world of stand-up.

And since every antihero needs allies to move forward, his girlfriend gives him a book whose precious advice will allow him to climb the steps of the stage one by one and hear the audience's reactions for the very first time.
