The wheel of fortune

Part story, part game, this is a book with a difference - one in which the reader becomes the protagonist. Inspired by Marcel Proust's 'In search of lost time' and Fyodor Dostoyevsky's 'The gambler', the action is set in a hotel casino on the coast of Normandy. 'The wheel of fortune' recovers the 'Choose your own adventure' gamebook - very popular in the early 1990s, right before the advent of the Internet. You, the reader, are responsible for the protagonist's vicissitudes. The narrative changes according to your decisions, the actions you carry out and your interaction with other characters inside the book. Sometimes you will need to try your luck to decide on different situations and to play the games that are offered in the story, like French roulette and . . . Russian roulette. Death, chance, desire and arcane knowledge will unfold as you explore the multiple narrative paths and the unknown that lies ahead.
