"Reza's fourth novel is undoubtedly her most personal text, the one in which, without departing from her sense of detail and the killer line that forms her signature, she delivers herself with the most sincerity." — Vogue"Finally, a book that dares! The lightness of the irreverent Yasmina Reza is the continuation of wisdom by other means." — The Point“What is this talent? Yasmina Reza has a gift for bringing characters to life and spicing up situations.” — Marie Claire“Yasmina Reza’s writing is like mercury. Her story unfolds with unparalleled fluidity without us perceiving the seams.” — Elle“A lot of fun, and very smart about family, aging, and being Jewish.” — Kirkus Reviews"Yasmina Reza turns a mordant eye on the misuses of war memorialization in Serge . . . she is a dab hand at crabby back-and-forths." — Sam Sacks, Wall Street Journal"Reza injects poetry into satire. Her art is knowing how to pierce the soul." — Le Journal du Dimanche“A perilous tightrope act that brings beauty to our chaotic existences.” — Le Parisien Week-End"Reza's tragicomic pen works wonders, transforming the worst horrors into anthology scenes and our daily worries into comedies." — L'Express“A pure delight.” — Sud Ouest"Reza leaves us breathless with this finely crafted little gem.” — Version Feminina"In this novel with its chiseled dialogue, we love each other as much as we tear each other apart." — Le Vif L'Express"Reza multiplies the comic dialogues, the incisive sallies, and these eternal scenes, which we have all experienced, which grip, beyond the imaginable." — Le Pèlerin"In this novel about siblings, old age, Jewishness, and solitude too, Yasmina Reza displays all her artistry." — La Provence“A highly anticipated novel, this text, which explores the bonds of a family as diverse as it is close-knit, is deeply human.” — S the Magazine"With this very edgy comedy, Yasmina Reza proves that she masters the art of the novel as well as the tricks of the theater." — Lire“A breath of fresh air” — Le Soir“A novelist and playwright delights in the ups and downs of an odiously endearing clan.” — Paris Match"That's what we love about Yasmina Reza: her freedom. And her way of using dark humor and daring to do anything." — La Voix du Nord“The new Yasmina Reza, of extraordinary power and truth.” — Alsace“A summary of life with the scalpel of words.” — Page des Libraires"If the author has always led her readers, with her free and subversive pen, to question the human condition, here she goes even further..." — Télé-Loisirs“Reza tackles painful subjects with lightness.” — France Info“A sumptuous novel about a family of crazy Jews. Both funny and moving.” — Challenges“It’s great art.” — Europe 1"While her characters provoke, fight and resent each other, Yasmina Reza delicately leaves traces of the mutual love and shared memories that continue to bind them all together. And it is precisely this tension that constitutes this novel’s strength." — Alice de Reviers, Albertine"Here is a book that better resembles a play than a novel: a dramatic subject rooted in history; a disturbing and offbeat treatise; endearing, ridiculous or whimsical characters; lively dialogues. But Serge is also an answer to the famous and very current question: can we laugh at everything?" — Rodolphe de Saint Hilaire, Culture-Tops"Can we say that this is one of the funniest texts written in French about a visit to Auschwitz, or is it incongruous? Funny because it is true: it is neither a farce nor a fable. . . . What does it mean to be a family? What does it mean to be Jewish? The novel raises a few existential questions in passing, with great accuracy and dazzling virtuosity." — Natalie Levisalles, En Attendant Nadeau"Hilarious. And inappropriate. But hilarious precisely because it is inappropriate. . . . . Reza crosses every boundary between comedy and tragedy" — Teresa Luxone, Limina
