Anotace knihy

Stand By Me meets Knausgaard: an explosive 1980s coming-of-age story in a hardscrabble Quebec mining town. Thetford Mines, an asbestos-mining town in Quebec, summer 1986. Nine-year-old Steve Dubois and ten-year-old Poulie revel in the joys of friendship, roaming free on their BMXs, building forts, reading Tintins, filling their disaster scrapbook, sharing escapades on the high slag heaps and landscapes that are part forest, part lunar. The two inseparable friends spend their days in idleness and innocence. But 1986 is a year rife with tragedy, from the Space Shuttle Challenger explosion to one closer to home, one that will rock Thetford Mines, and Steve, to the core. Five years later, we find Steve consumed by his obsession: to recreate his vanished paradise. Wielding precise and sensual language, Sébastien Dulude tells the story of a fragile and volatile youth in a working-class dream that is losing momentum.
