Lolita Pius, the “literary goddaughter” of Frederic Beigbeder, as the French call her, began publishing at the age of nineteen. Her novels about Parisian youth, Hell and Bubble Gum, brought her great fame and real box office success. For her third novel, “Twilight City,” the young writer bravely chose a traditionally “masculine” genre—and did not disappoint her fans’ expectations. "Twilight City" is a futuristic thriller with a twisted plot that has everything: persecution, violence, mystery, danger, love. The time of action is some indefinite future. The place is a metropolis where, for unknown reasons, the sun has stopped shining. The city has been powered by electricity for many years, and the authorities are working to make all residents - known as "subscribers" - happy. However, it is impossible to leave there: planes don’t fly, roads don’t lead anywhere. Handsome superman Sid Paradine is trying to unravel the secret of the darkness reigning over the city and is starting a dangerous game with the special services.
