O.K. Yes, it's been made into a movie, but as with nearly all really good books the movie doesn't hold a patch on the book.

Quirky and endearing French novel about three disperate characters, Camille, an artist who is working as a cleaner.

Philbert, an erudite French aristocrat who sells postcards for a living and Franck, an angry chef, who loves his grandmother dearly, but could otherwise be described as womanising and cantankerous.

This is the story of how they come to care for one another as a family and regain their faith in humanity.
