Résumé

Two novels written exactly 99 years apart start the 20th and 21st centuries. The Immoralist by André Gide and Plateform by Michel Houellebecq, tell hedonistic tales of the modern tourist. This work will analyze the circumstances and the limits of this individualistic and corrupted pursuit in the novels. We will question, alongside Phillipe Muray, the nature and pitfalls of such a global project and its eventual moral cost.
