About the Book

Entre Homeland y House of Cards, esta trilogía suma un adictivo thriller político y social con una saga familiar que pone contra las cuerdas a la Francia actual. En el primer volumen, el primer candidato árabe al Eliseo está a punto de desbancar a Nicolas Sarkozy pero no todo el mundo está dispuesto a permitirlo.

Un sábado de Mayo. París.

Idder Chaouch, el primer candidato árabe a la presidencia de Francia, es el favorito para vencer a Nicolas Sarkozy en las que se consideran las elecciones del año. Ha sido una campaña larga y, acompañado de su mujer Esther y su hija Jasmine, pasa las últimas horas de la víspera electoral con sus asesores en un hotel de Nimes. Durante la cena, gran parte de la conversación gira en torno al novio de Jasmine: Fouad Nerrouche, un conocido actor de orígenes argelinos que ha apoyado públicamente la candidatura de Chaouch. Es difícil ignorar la influencia de tal celebridad en esta carrera compleja e impredecible que podría marcar un antes y un después en la historia de Francia.

Mismo día. Saint-Etienne.

La familia Nerrouche se prepara frenéticamente para una gran boda y Fouad se encuentra ahí para ayudar. Pero su primo Krim -que acaba de perder su trabajo- cada vez parece más inquieto y nadie sabe por qué. A medida que avanza el día, queda claro que sus problemas van más allá del desempleo: su primo Nazir, hermano de Fouad y oscura figura del submundo del crimen local, le ha encargado una misión que puede dinamitar el destino de una familia y las esperanzas de todo un país.

Sabri Louatah firma en esta trepidante trilogía un thriller político y social de una actualidad estremecedora que dejará al lector en vilo, una saga familiar que pone contra las cuerdas a la Francia actual mientras bucea en los bajos fondos de un sistema dispuesto a todo para no desaparecer.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

It's the eve of the French presidential elections - 'The Election of the Century' say the newspaper headlines - and Chaouch, the nation's first Arab candidate, has victory in his sights. It has been a long campaign, and with his wife Esther and daughter Jasmine by his side, he spends the remaining hours with close advisors in a hotel in Nimes. Much of the dinner table chatter revolves around Jasmine's boyfriend; Fouad Nerrouche, a well-known actor with the same Algerian origins as her father, who has just publicly endorsed Chaouch's candidacy. However shallow it may seem, it's difficult to ignore the influence of celebrity support in this complex and unpredictable race . . .

The same day. Saint-Etienne.

The Nerrouche family is frantically preparing for a grand wedding, and Fouad himself is there to help out. But younger cousin Krim - who has recently lost his job - is becoming increasingly agitated, and no one knows why. As the day goes on, it becomes clear that the cousin's problems go far deeper than unemployment. Krim has been stealing from a local gang leader and after being discovered, found himself indebted to his powerful cousin, Nazir - Fouad's brother. Nazir is a very shady figure, and is heavily involved in a dark underworld of crime. Together, their plans will cause Fouad's two very different worlds to meet in a way no one would have dared to imagine. Within a few hours, the threads start to unravel, and the collision between the destiny of a family and the hopes of a country becomes inevitable.

With the pacing of a thriller, Louatah melds the tense atmosphere of a family saga with the gripping suspense of a political drama into one breathtaking read.


About the Author: Sabri Louatah (Saint-Etienne, 1983) vive en Estados Unidos. En 2005, cuando las revueltas estallaron por toda Francia, leyó Los demonios de Dostoievski. Fue su principal inspiración para escribir Los salvajes, una trilogía que se ha convertido en un gran éxito. Reconocido por el diario británico The Guardian como una de las nuevas voces más destacadas de 2018, ahora trabaja en una adaptación a la televisión de la saga, así como en una nueva novela sobre Estados Unidos.
