To The Friend Who Did Not Save My Life

Hervé Guibert


Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. To The Friend Who Did Not Save My Life by Hervé Guibert follows the personal journey of a man suffering from Aids in the penultimate years of his life.

What We Say: “This scandalous novel is loosely based on the life of one of Western philosophers' greats during their darkest hours. Guibert is darkly hilarious and deeply insightful. His narration on friendship and forthright exploration of the final years of one man’s life is both tender and devastating” – Jamie Styles

What They Say:  “Dark and unsettling, yet Guibert manages to find beauty and tenderness in the world around him” — Moyra Davey
