Dupa ce fura inima de aur a unui preot, un asasin ajunge sa fie urmarit de politisti pe acoperisuri si sa fie ucis, in joaca, de un copil de sase ani. Lupul Denis, un animal civilizat si vegetarian, se transforma in om si are accese de ferocitate inexplicabile. O masinarie se indragosteste de o fata si ii recita versuri de dragoste. Peste Paris se lasa o inexplicabila ceata alba, cu proprietati afrodiziace, care-i face pe oameni orbi si mai fericiti ca niciodata... Un univers fantast, cu accente de umor negru si poezie intensa, cu care cititorii lui Boris Vian sunt deja obisnuiti.

Boris Vian was a French polymath: writer, poet, musician, singer, translator, critic, actor, inventor and engineer. He is best remembered for novels such as L’Écume des jours and L'Arrache-cœur (translated into English as Froth on the Daydream and Heartsnatcher, respectively). He is also known for highly controversial "criminal" fiction released under the pseudonym Vernon Sullivan and some of his songs (particularly the anti-war Le Déserteur). Vian was also fascinated with jazz: he served as liaison for, among others, Duke Ellington and Miles Davis in Paris, wrote for several French jazz-reviews (Le Jazz Hot, Paris Jazz) and published numerous articles dealing with jazz both in the United States and in France.
