Product Information
From the author of The Red Notebook, described as 'Parisian perfection' by HRH The Duchess of Cornwall, The President's Hat is a delightful fable about an unsuspecting accountant who happens upon President Mitterand's hat. 'Enjoy it for its fabulistic narrative, and the way it teeters pleasantly on the edge of Gallic whimsy' Guardian Paperback of the Week Dining alone in an elegant Parisian brasserie, accountant Daniel Mercier can hardly believe his eyes when President François Mitterrand sits down to eat at the table next to him. Daniel's thrill at being in such close proximity to the most powerful man in the land persists even after the presidential party has gone, which is when he discovers that Mitterrand's black felt hat has been left behind. After a few moments' soul-searching, Daniel decides to keep the hat as a souvenir of an extraordinary evening. It's a perfect fit, and as he leaves the restaurant Daniel begins to feel somehow ... different.

Reviews
"A hymn to la vie Parisienne." --The Guardian "A fable of romance and redemption." --The Telegraph "Captures the same romantic, whimsical, nostalgic feeling that the film Amélie did so well--partly because it is set in the 1980s, so before computers, mobile phones and social networking, partly as the plot is also driven by accident and chance. One of the pleasures of the book is that it is a personal, special discovery. You feel that you have stumbled across a book that nobody else knows about. Your relationship with the book is the same as that of the various characters to the hat itself--you are blessed to have come across it." --The Guardian "As entertaining as it is original, this is the story to enjoy like a chocolate with a surprise centre." --Marie France "Teeters pleasantly on the edge of Gallic whimsy." --The Guardian "Impossible to resist." --L'Express "Flawless . . . a funny, clever, feel-good social satire with the page-turning quality of a great detective novel." --Rosie Goldsmith "An enchanting, irresistible story which flows quickly and effortlessly from one vivid character to the next, capturing their essence in a minimum of words and with a vitality that never ceases to surprise and delight." --Lancashire Evening Post "Antoine Laurain's delightful The President's Hat remains my favourite book of 2013 . . . an absolute gem, guaranteed to make you smile." --Susan Osborne "Full of charm and humour, this short book looks at how a small change in attitude can have significant differences to lives. It's a delightful little read." --The Bookbag "Its gentle satirical humor reminded me of Jacques Tati's classic films, and, no, you don't have to know French politics to enjoy this novel." --Library Journal "The most feel-good book I've read in years." --Francofille "Part eccentric romance, part detective story . . . this book makes perfect holiday reading." --The Lady "A quirky, enchanting love story that will surely soften the hardest of cynics." --We Love This Book "An inspired and delicious fable." --Version Femina "A clever game of cat-and-mouse, bringing back a whole host of memories of the period it perfectly re-enacts." --20 Minutes "This is a simple tale that is entertaining, but it is also a tale that speaks more profoundly of the human attachment to objects as desired sources of power." --Bookslut "I loved this book for its quirky story, its embracing humanism, its clever reenactment of the 1980s with all those '80s icons of art and politics, and its wonderful characters." --Readallday.com "A whimsical flavor of Paris. The characters are warm, believable and authentic, the setting and situations are well drawn which all contribute to making this a captivating, quick read." --Monsters & Critics "Like Cinderella's glass slipper or Aladdin's lamp, the hat is a talisman that makes its wearers' dreams come true." --RTL "Effortlessly combines a skillfully woven story and the emblems of the eighties." --L'Express "Clever, revealing, funny and caustic, this novel charmingly paints a cast of characters and brings the eighties vividly back to life." --Télé Loisirs "We're in safe hands with Antoine Laurain, the man behind this sweet, lively, nostalgic tale." --Livres Hebdo "Subtle, inventive, and often funny." --L'Avenir, 'A hymn to la vie Parisienne' The Guardian 'A fable of romance and redemption' The Telegraph 'Captures the same romantic, whimsical, nostalgic feeling that the film Amélie did so well--partly because it is set in the 1980s, so before computers, mobile phones and social networking, partly as the plot is also driven by accident and chance.
