The Dead All Have the Same Skin.
This author wrote about a man who builds a giant machine to psychoanalyze himself in one novel. Psychoanalysis also plays a major role in his second novel, in which the psychiatrist Timortis helps Angel's wife ClÃ©mentine give birth to three sons, two of whom are twins. This author of The Red Grass and Heartsnatcher used the pseudonym Vernon Sullivan for his crime novels, including I Spit on Your Graves and The Dead All Have the Same Skin. His anti-war song "The Deserter" was published during the Battle of Dien Bien Phu, and he was also involved with the French jazz scene, which is why the title of his most famous novel is sometimes translated as Mood Indigo. In that novel, Chick loses all his money because of his obsession with the philosopher Jean-Sol Partre and Colin's wife ChloÃ© dies of a water lily in the lung, a disease which can only be cured by surrounding her with flowers. For 10 points, name this author of Froth on the Daydream.
