About “The Winner Stands Alone”
Set during a single day at the Cannes Film Festival, The Winner Stands Alone follows Igor, a Russian entrepreneur driven by a desire to reclaim his ex-wife, Ewa, whom he believes was meant to be his by destiny. The novel explores the moral consequences of fame and ambition through the interconnected lives of figures within the fashion and cinema industries, including the elite "Superclass" and those striving for recognition. It presents a meditation on personal power and the corruption of innocence in a world consumed by glamour and excess. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
