When his fireworks factory job ends explosively, Jose uncovers surprising new talents: childcare, cleaning, gardening, he excels at it all. But hanging out with his jazz-loving neighbour, Jose unearths one last talent, and life, death and domesticity converge. Told in a single, hypnotic paragraph, Petite Fleur is a discordant riff on suburban life.
When his fireworks factory job ends explosively and his wife returns to work, Jose is surprised to realise he has a talent for keeping house: childcare, tidying, cleaning, cooking, gardening, he excels at it all. On Thursdays, he hangs out and drinks good wine with his jazz-loving neighbour. But when Jose''s new talents take a sudden and gruesome turn, life, death, resurrection, and domesticity unexpectedly converge. In one single, hypnotic paragraph, Petite Fleur harnesses the unpredictability of Aira and the mysticism of Tolstoy in a discordant riff on suburban life.
