Paris, June 1995. In a large restaurant, a waiter is violently beaten by a customer. No one around him intervenes. Neither the Russian couple, nor the wife of the angry man, nor the two young traders. A simple anecdote? Not even a news item? From the fall of the Berlin Wall to the financial crisis of 2008, in a world shaped by money, the intertwined destinies of the actors in this inaugural scene gradually weave a web. And at the center of the web, Sila, the waiter on the ground, an immobile figure around whom everything moves. After The Origin of Violence, Fabrice Humbert has written The Fortune of Sila a captivating novel about our globalized societies. RTL-Lire Grand Prix 2011. A prodigious dive into the world of mad money. Delphine Peras, L’Express. A great romantic fresco with Balzacian accents. Bernard Lehut, RTL.

پاریس، تابستان 1995. هنگامی که مردی با خشونت تمام به پیشخدمتِ رستوران حمله می‌کند، هیچکس از جایش جنب نمی‌خورد. نه زوج روسی، نه همسر مهاجم و نه حتی دو کاسب جوانی که به رستوران آمده‌اند تا نخستین قراردادشان را جشن بگیرند. ظاهرا خشونت رخدادی است عادی و روزمره که هیچ‌کس را غافل‌گیر نمی‌کند. فابریس هومبر، متولد 1967 در سن‌کلو فرانسه، از مهم‌ترین نویسندگان ادبیات معاصر فرانسه است. سرگذشت سیلا، همچون شناخته‌شده‌ترین اثر دیگرش، منشأ خشونت، کاوشی است در موضوع خشونت و قربانیان آن.
