Title: Hurricane - Laurent Gaudé - book Summary : In New Orleans, when a terrible storm is forecast, most of the inhabitants flee the city. Those who cannot leave will have to endure the fury of the sky. Restored to its primordial violence, nature unleashes itself and confronts everyone with their inner truth: what remains of a man in the midst of chaos, when all social or moral reference points have dissolved into fear? Alone in his car, Keanu races towards the devastated neighborhoods, in the heart of the turmoil, in search of Rose, whom he left behind six years earlier and whom he must find to, perhaps, give meaning to his existence... In a striking apocalyptic setting, Laurent Gaudé stages a dozen characters who cross paths or meet. Their voices rise collectively in a broad chorus that resonates like the cry of the city abandoned to its fate. An ambitious novel with empathetic and incantatory writing, "Ouragan" blends the gravity of tragedy with the benevolent sweetness of fable to exalt loyalty, fraternity, and the moving beauty of those who remain standing.
