Mood Indigo, Paperback / softback Book

Mood Indigo Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

'A mad, moving, beautiful novel' IndependentThe world of Mood Indigo is a stained-glass cartoon kind of a place, where the piano dispenses cocktails, the kitchen mice dance to the sound of sunbeams, and the air is three parts jazz.

Colin is a wealthy young aristocrat with a big heart.

The instant he sees Chloe, bass drums thump inside his shirt, and soon the two are married.

Typically generous, Colin gives a quarter of his fortune to his best friend Chick so he can marry Chloe's friend Alyssum. But a lily grows in Chloe's lung, and Colin must spend his remaining fortune on the only available treatment: surrounding her daily with fresh flowers.

Chick squanders his share of Colin's money on rare books and it is not long before the friends are forced to sacrifice their carefree lives to soul-crushing work. A surreal cult classic that continues to inspire and endure, Mood Indigo is an animated and delightful satire.
