Rock star Alexandre Bleach might be dead, but he has a secret. It`s a secret that concerns several people, but the only person who can unlock it is Vernon Subutex, former record shop proprietor turned homeless messiah & guru, last seen hallucinating & feverish on a bench in the parc des Buttes Chaumont. Aicha wants to know the truth behind the death of her mother, Vodka Satana. & if she finds the bastards responsible, she wants to make them pay, whatever Celeste thinks of her plan. Celeste wants Aicha to get a grip & stop hanging around with Subutex`s gang of disciples. The Hyena wants to find the Bleach tapes. She wants to untangle her complicated feelings about Anais, her boss` assistant. & speaking of her boss, she does not want Laurent Dopalet to discover how badly she has double-crossed him.

Above all, he wants people to understand: NONE OF THIS IS HIS FAULT.THE SEQUEL TO VERNON SUBUTEX 1, SHORTLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE 2018.

The Versailles Settlement does not enjoy a good reputation: despite its lofty aim to settle the world`s affairs at a stroke, it is widely considered to have set the world on the path to a second major conflict within a generation. Woodrow Wilson`s controversial principle of self-determination amplified political complexities in the Balkans, & the war & its settlement bear significant responsibility for boundaries & related conflicts in the Middle East. Furthermore, other objectives of the peacemakers, such as global disarmament & minority protection, are yet to be realised. A century on, the settlement still casts a long shadow. This book, fully revised & updated with new material for the centenary of the Paris Paris Conferences at Versailles in 1919 sets the consequences
- for good or ill
- of the Peace Treaties into their longer term context & argues that the responsibility for Europe`s continuing interwar instability cannot be wholly attributed to the peacemakers of 1919-23.
