Description
A young correspondent for a well-known wire service is sent to Sicily for a series of articles on the agonizing death of an eminent local citizen. With him are two old hands—Saglieri, a mythical figure of photo journalism, and Ganz. Philippe Brunel captures the unique relationship that develops between the three men against the lush scenery of the Sicilian landscape. Soon after their adventure has ended, Saglieri disappears without a trace. When the young narrator encounters him on the streets of Paris ten years later, the memories of their time together come back in a whirlwind. This exquisite novel presents an alternative view of the often idealized lives of the great reporters.
