In the vein of the writings of Paul Bowles, Paul Theroux, and V. S. Naipaul, The African Shore marks a major new installment in the genre of dystopic travel fiction. Rodrigo Rey Rosa, prominent in today's Guatemalan literary world and an author of growing international reputation, presents a tale of alienation, misrecognition, and intrigue set in and around Tangier. He weaves a double narrative involving a Colombian tourist pleasurably stranded in Morocco and a young shepherd who dreams of migrating to Spain and of "riches to come." At the center of their tale is an owl both treasured and coveted. The author addresses the anxiety, distrust, and potential for violence that characterize the border of all borders: the strait that divides Africa and Europe, where the waters of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic meet. His often-remarked prose style, at once rich and spare, endows his work with remarkable elegance. Rey Rosa generates a powerful reality within his imagined world, and he maintains a narrative tension to the haunting conclusion, raising small and large questions that linger in the reader's mind long after the final page. With an Afterword by Jeffrey Gray… (altro)

J'étais intriguée par ce « coup de cœur » de Renaud-Bray: roman guatémaltèque situé au Maroc. L'auteur situe merveilleusement son histoire, à Tanger et dans ses environs, et ses personnages sont variés : berger, Européennes, Colombiens, etc. Par contre, l'intrigue est difficile à suivre - le fil conducteur est une chouette qui visiblement représente le personnage principal, mais comme on ne sait pas vraiment ni ce que devient la chouette ni le personnage, on reste un petit peu sur sa faim. C'est un roman qui mérite sans doute plus d'une lecture, car elle se situe définitivement à plusieurs niveaux. Vaut le détour, mais la réflexion est de rigueur. ( )

À l'heure où Hamza se leva, la nuit régnait encore et le vent d'Est soufflait avec une violence telle qu'il résonnait dans le feuillage des arbres comme mille maracas et sifflait entre les éperons rocheux de la falaise où venaient se fracasser les vagues de l'océan.

Elle parcourut cette demeure, volant de pièce en pièce, le long des couloirs, jusqu'à ce qu'elle trouve une fente confortable dans la paroi rugueuse et obscure d'un grenier au toit duquel il manquait quelques tuiles, et où les lattes du plancher étaient fendues ou complètement pourries.
