‘The Elegance of the Hedgehog’, a novel by French writer and philosopher Muriel Barbery, has sold over a million copies in France and hundreds of thousands worldwide - and made the author famous. This book has been compared to Fanny Flagg's Fried Green Tomatoes and Jean-Pierre Genet's romantic comedy Amélie, but in fact it is certainly unique. A twelve-year-old girl, intelligent and educated beyond her years, is finally disillusioned with humanity. The elderly concierge secretly studies philosophy, reads Leo Tolstoy, watches Japanese arthouse cinema and listens to Mahler, carefully hiding her intelligence from everyone. A wealthy Japanese man, now settled in Paris, tries to unravel the secret of these secretive women. Unlikely friendships, unexplored opportunities, a new way of looking at the world; three people will embark on a quiet journey that will change their lives and teach them - and us - to notice the unexpected where we are all used to seeing only the stereotypical and predictable.
