Description

Après Tanger et Alexandrie, avec cet Istanbul, Daniel Rondeau arrive au terme d'un voyage en Méditerranée commencé il y aura bientôt vingt ans. Istanbul ou la Sublime Porte : le portrait d'une ville magique, une promenade dans ses mystères, et une autre façon d'interroger l'histoire et la littérature. De nombreux séjours ont conduit l'auteur à entrer dans l'intimité de la ville. A la manière de Pausanias, ce voyageur et géographe grec du IIe siècle, qui parcourut les villes de la Grèce, petites et grandes, pour en faire une description dans un style simple et sans prétention, Rondeau raconte ce qu'il voit là où ses pas le mènent : le long de la muraille, sur les rives du Bosphore, aux îles des Princes, dans les cimetières d'Europe et d'Asie. Choses vues, choses lues, choses vécues aussi, glanées en quelques années de fréquentation assidue d'une ville inoubliable : une invitation au voyage merveilleusement écrite, un souffle chargé de couleurs et de passions.
