Every year, people hope that a handful of feverish, inspired, despairing and flamboyant young writers will produce the novel that will define their generation. For Ann Scott, it was the year 2000 with Superstars, a story about girls, boys, drugs and techno, a third-person account that was a massive misunderstanding. To Crazy Youth comes ten years later. <br><br>At dawn on New Year’s Day, the narrator has arranged to meet her two best friends, Marie and Stella, at the Café de Flore in Paris. They will just miss each other, not see each other but try to all the same during the course of a day that will start everything from scratch again as they are reunited with those they have love too much, or not enough. With great lucidity, the narrator picks apart her own past and “fame” and the whole soufflé that has subsequently collapsed. <br><br>Success is a stranger who leaves you alone one morning with a cold heart.
