Plot



Matthieu has had the manuscript of his first novel rejected repeatedly. When he discovers a manuscript among the abandoned possessions of a recently deceased man, he publishes it as his own work to great acclaim. He begins a relationship with Alice, a book critic. Years pass and he fails to produce another book and has spent what his first book earned as well as the advance he has received for his next work. He is blackmailed by a man who knows of and can prove he is a fraud even as others, especially Alice's brother, doubt his talent. In a confrontation he kills Alice's brother. In a burst of creative energy he writes a new novel, which he gives to Alice to read. Pursued by his blackmailer, he stages a car wreck to kill him and then retreats from life. Later, he comes across Alice in a bookstore with their newborn child, celebrating the posthumous publication of Matthieu's novel.
