Publisher's Synopsis

Sometimes a small detail can decide everything, and the one that shapes the protagonist's career is the briefcase his mother has given him as a gift upon getting his first job. On inauguration day, the chief of staff of the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs trips over the briefcase and immediately reassigns its owner to the the Eastern European and Siberian division of the Department of Developing Countries, also known as the Russian front. The banished owner, a bit naive, attempts to build a career within the Ministry, although he doesn't always succeed. A hilarious satire with bitter undertones that resonates with anyone who has ever worked in the business world, this novel was first published in France in 2010 with great success.

A veces un pequeño detalle lo puede decidir todo, y el que condiciona la carrera del protagonista es el maletìn que le ha regalado su madre por su primer trabajo. El dìa de su toma de posesión, el jefe de personal del Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores francés tropieza con el maletìn e inmediatamente destina a su dueño al Departamento de Paìses en Vìas de Desarrollo, sección de Europa del Este y Siberia, también conocido como el frente ruso. El dueño desterrado, un tanto ingenuo, intenta hacer su carrera en el ministerio, aunque sus intentos no siempre tienen éxito. Una sátira desternillante con un trasfondo amargo que le resulta familiar a todo el que haya trabajado en el mundo empresarial, esta novela fue publicada inicialmente en Francia en el año 2010 con gran éxito.
