The four posthumous lives of Django Reinhardt

The author writes three imaginary accounts of the life of Django Reinhardt as if he had survived his brain haemorrhage. He continues his jazz career and triumphs in a concert where he plays a duet with Thelonious Monk ; henceforth as a composer of Electro-acoustic music, he lives at the top of a Manhattan skyscraper ; he abandons jazz and the gypsies in order to wander alone through the streets of Paris. The story which completes the book evoques the posterity of the artist : whilst in the three works of fiction Django dies, this one illustrates how he could have become immortal.
