ROMAN «LE RETOUR», Elliot Mazzella | Le retour de Joseph ne se passe pas comme prévu. Tantôt étranger, tantôt membre de la communauté, sa situation est on ne peut plus instable. Les tâches collectives auxquelles il prend part prennent peu à peu l’allure d’épreuves qui vont parfois jusqu’à mettre sa vie en danger. Après un simulacre de chasse à l’homme, Joseph se voit confier la porcherie, où, sans qu’il le sache, une vieille connaissance l’attend.
DOSSIER «VOUS AVEZ DIT EUROPE?», Quentin Perissinotto | Swiss writer, naturalized French but born in Berlin in 1881, Guy de Pourtalès was one of Gallimard's best-selling authors before falling completely into oblivion, in France even more than in Switzerland. Open to Europe and the world, but at the same time attached to his roots, he was constantly torn between different identities, at the margins yet at the heart of different spheres, both social and ideological. In La pêche miraculeuse, published in 1937, Guy de Pourtalès portrays French-speaking society at the turn of the century through the adventures of a young Genevan aristocrat, Paul de Villars. This apprenticeship novel, in the purest tradition of Goethe's Wilhem Meister, gives us a front-row seat to the upheavals of the 20th century, between the tranquil shores of Lake Geneva and the trenches of the Great War.
