Le tennis est un sport romantique
€ 16.50
ISBN: 9782491372507
1980s. Julien is 5 years old and lives with his mother, who raises him as best she can. She has kept the child's father a secret, but one day, while they are watching the legendary Roland-Garros final on June 10, 1984, bickering, on TV, she reveals something about his father: he is the loser of the match! From then on, the young boy will never stop searching for this illustrious father... within racket reach.
A deep, crazy, and disconcerting quest for identity that will punctuate his life, his dreams, and his obsessions. A captivating and moving novel about parentage, set against a backdrop of tennis and nostalgia for the 80s and 90s, where the author humorously manages to combine the seriousness with the lightness of childhood.
