The “Étoilé” series is a fascinating foray into the world of haute cuisine. The series’ main characters range from a TV celebrity chef and his oenologist wife to a kooky self‐taught cook, a Sri Lankan commis chef, the manager of a Turkish café, and a wealthy investor.

With his series “The Dream,” Jean Dufaux aims to create a fresco of contemporary characters living in America, a country where the fantasy of an idyllic, innovative, and dynamic society has often brought out the worst. Each volume is dedicated to one of his unique characters: an empty‐headed fashion victim, a yuppie turned vagabond, country folk in the most remote corners of the Midwest, and, like in this first book, a stripper in a rough suburb of San Francisco. The witness to all this is Megan, a casting director working for the IAP, a Hollywood movie production company. Her risky mission: to bring out the potential actor hidden deep in each and every one of these characters.

Alongside Jeanne Puchol, Laurent Galandon presents “Interférences,” a new fictional documentary in the vein of “Lip, des héros ordinaires.” Through his new book, he takes us back to the 1970s, a time when many took to the radio waves in an effort to encourage and expand freedom of speech. A true lesson for those who take this and other rights for granted today.

The story is set in the United States of the 1930s, and tells of the journeys of a white teenage boy, Huck Finn, and a young black man, Charley. United by a secret, the pair will flee their hometown to live the bohemian life for four years in the American South. There they will become “hoboes,” discovering the “real” United States in the midst of the Great Depression. Charley, a lover of jazz, will even achieve acclaim as a musician. But this is also the story of his downfall: drugs and excess of all kinds. It seems he signed a pact with the Devil — and frequented the town of Crossroads, “where all paths cross…”

“Ma Vie de réac’” brings up all the issues of modern society from a unique perspective. This is the point of view of the main character, who is a sort of reactionary-but-not-really, both bourgeois, and anti-bourgeois, cool but not cool, naive, bewildered, anti-modern, hyper-modern… In short, he is a contemporary man entangled in contradictions, who symbolizes, as an individual, the current conflict between conservatives and liberals.
