Windows on the world (Broché)

On a bright September morning, Carthew Yorston eats breakfast with his two sons in the restaurant named " Windows on the World ". In less than two hours the tower that houses it will be hit by a hijacked airliner. Weaving together fact, fiction, dark humour and autobiography, Frédéric Beigbeder dares to confront the terrifying image that has come to define our world - the image onto which we have come to project our fears, compassion, anger, incomprehension.
