Santa Fé
Description
Roque a dépassé la soixantaine. Cest un heureux mélancolique. "Je suis rangé des voitures" - une expression qui lui plaît - dit-il volontiers. Pas si bien rangé qu'il ne puisse éviter un petit bolide de 18 ans, Léa, la beauté même. Le choc est rude, où sa vie, bien assurée, malgré lui éclate. Comment magnifier cette rencontre ? se demande-t-il. Avec l'Amérique, qu'il va lui offrir en la lui révélant. Sans doute Léa ne peut-elle rêver meilleur guide. Roque connaît le Nouveau Monde septentrional par mille livres, autant de films et cent voyages. Ils partent. Reviendront-ils ? Ensemble ? Dans ce road book, le roman de Roque et Léa se déploie le long d'une route historique et mythique : la National 66, qui part de Chicago pour atteindre Los Angeles. Santa Fé, ou la double passion d'un homme : celle qu'il porte à une femme et celle qu'il voue au Nouveau Monde. Dans les deux cas, la quête d'une jeunesse perdue, où le chemin du bonheur croise la Piste des Larmes... Editeur, critique littéraire, romancier, Yves Berger a obtenu le prix Femina pour Le Sud et le prix Médicis pour Immobile dans le courant du fleuve.
