Summary:
"Détective métaphysique, Jean d'Ormesson apporte, avec Un hosanna sans fin, la dernière pierre à sa trilogie - Comme un chant d'espérance, Guide des égarés - et tente de trouver la réponse à l'inépuisable question : "Que fais-je donc là ?" A travers ce livre-testament, il poursuit avec gaieté la clé de ce mystère, et nous invite à rêver, à espérer, à croire."--Page 4 of cover.
With Endless Hosanna, Jean d'Ormesson completes his trilogy (Like a Song of Hope , Guide of the Lost) which constitutes three attempts to answer the question: What am I doing there? In the guise of a metaphysical detective, he pursues this questioning and gleefully attempts to unravel this mystery. Throughout the pages, he invites us to dream, to hope, to believe. We remember the last words he wrote three days before his death, which his daughter had shared on the set of the Great Bookstore. The last words of his manuscript--Translation of page 4 of cover.
