But his most popular book is probablyAll the World's Mornings (Tous les matins du monde), about 17th-century viola de gamba playerMarin Marais and his teacher,Sainte-Colombe, which was adapted for the screen in 1991, by directorAlain Corneau. Quignard wrote the screenplay of the film, in collaboration with Corneau.Tous les matins du monde, starringJean-Pierre Marielle,Gérard Depardieu and sonGuillaume Depardieu, was a tremendous success in France and sold 2 million tickets in the first year. It was subsequently distributed in 31 countries, and released in 1992 in the United States. The soundtrack was certified platinum (500,000 copies) and contributed to musicianJordi Savall’s international celebrity. Quignard has also translated works from the Latin (Porcius Latro), Chinese (Kong-souen Long), and Greek (Lycophron).
