Synopsis

Valérie Carpentier, Socialist Mayor of the 21st arrondissement of Paris, is cruising to victory in the upcoming municipal elections. But she has under-estimated her Communist and Green Party coalition partners' capacity for mischief and ineptitude. Community outreach officer Mamadou has election plans of his own. And would-be terrorist Djamel's anger is rising. Anything could set him off. Meanwhile, in the corner of a school playground, a little boy starts to cry...

Weaving together multiple characters and sub-plots, the Twenty-First is a searing, yet warm-hearted, comic novel full of socialism, wokeness and organic avocados.
