- Fiction, French-Canadian fiction
Dénonciation du mirage californien, des manipulations de la CIA et satire, quelque peu complaisante, des intellectuels québécois dans la cinquantaine. Un roman habilement construit, au style fluide, au ton voltairien, auquel on pourrait reprocher de rester trop souvent à la superficie des choses.
