None of them expected the nuclear war to happen, yet here it is. While the major cities of the globe are turned to dust, a couple of survivors try their best to stay alive in a resort located in the mountains of Switzerland: the Hôtel Sixième. Things couldn't get any worse, could they? Well, they do so when the body of a little girl is found in the water supplies of the hotel, with evidence that the killer is still among them... This book is extremely well crafted, from the feelings of isolation, to the fear of one another. A brilliant mix of post-apocalyptic literature and mystery!

Finalist for the National Book Award 2019 An Observer, Literary Review and Time Book of the Year 'One of the most affecting novels I have read.

On his way home one evening, Driss Guerraoui is hit by a car and dies a few minutes later, victim of a hit-and-run. Coming back home for the funeral, in the Californian Yucca Valley, his daughter Nora is determined to find out who killed him. Paced as a crime fiction, this novel by Laila Lalami is one of my 2020 favorites. The novel explores with sensitivity and acuity a complex mother/daughter relationship, and violence, in different forms: what being a Muslim immigrant after 9/11 means in the US, the trauma of the Iraq war, and the US obsession for safety via gun culture.

Christopher Paolini fait une entrée fracassante dans la littérature adulte et la science-fiction ! To Sleep In a Sea of Stars ne redéfinit pas le genre du space opera, mais l'exploite avec brio pour donner un cocktail détonant mélangeant des thèmes comme le premier contact, les grands anciens et la guerre spatiale, le tout dans un univers original ! Ce livre ravira les fans de la saga Alien ou de la série The Expanse, à consommer sans modération !

Un auteur vient de publier son dernier roman et se prépare à partir en tournée pour en faire la promotion dans plusieurs petites librairies. Il se fait voler sa valise contenant nombre d'exemplaires en posant le pied dans sa première destination, se retrouvera mêlé à une sombre disparition qui a peut-être un rapport avec l'intrigue de son titre, et se retrouvera dans des situations absurdes qui défient le bon sens et la logique. Un concentré d'humour surréaliste à la Kafka.
