Un dernier verre au bar sans nom, by Don Carpenter

The story of four young writers living in Northern California and Portland during the days of the early Beat generation, written by one of the most talented authors of that generation. Hope, love and friendship are among the ingredients of this ‘classic’ American page turner.

Les fonds noirs, by Camille de Villeneuve

Bruno Casals is ready to fight to protect his empire from the sharks who want to destroy him. A story of men and heritage but as usual nothing is as simple as it looks. Sharp narration.

Le grand marin, by Catherine Poulain

A young French woman sets off for a season of fishing in Alaska. We follow the footsteps of this unusual woman through the author's brilliant writing. A must read. Melvile inspirational.
