Summary:

On March 24, 1941, Captain Paul-Lemerle leaves the port of Marseille, with on board the reprobates of Vichy France and a Europe on fire, immigrants from the East and Spanish Republicans in exile, the Jews and stateless, surreal writers and decadent artists, scholars and businessmen. Time of the novel where one crosses along the coasts of the Mediterranean, then of the open sea, until Martinique, André Breton and Claude Lévi-Strauss dialoguing, Anna Seghers, his manuscript and his children, Victor Serge, his son and his revolutions, Wifredo Lam, his painting, and so many unknowns, so many crossed trajectories, thrown there by the vagaries of agony and chance, from shadow to light. What Adrien Bosc resurrects is a time of yesterday that also resembles our today. A memory that shines at the moment of danger.--Stock.
