紀堯姆·米索（Guillaume Musso），生於一九七四年的法國新銳作傢。少時即鍾情寫作，並立誌成為小說傢。米索九十年代赴紐約遊曆，靠在街頭販賣冰淇淋貼補旅費。這段波西米亞式的生活深刻影響瞭其日後的創作。米索二○○一年登上文壇，代錶作《後來》（ET APRES…）在法國的銷售已逾百萬冊，其他作品也已被翻譯為二十多種文字。米索作品的畫麵感極強，數部小說將被改編為電影，並由美劇《迷失》班底製作完成。

If you could go back in time what would you do differently? What mistakes would you correct? For Eliott there is no doubt in his mind. To all appearances, his life has been a success. At sixty, he is an esteemed surgeon with a daughter he adores. The only thing missing is Ilena – a beautiful, generous-hearted girl who died thirty years ago. But then he is given an extraordinary opportunity to revisit his past: to go back to San Francisco when the seventies were in full swing and find the passionate young doctor who has yet to lose the love of his life . . . What ensues is a story full of intelligence, hope and humour about making the right and wrong choices and trying to deserve what we most desire.
