«Et que le vaste monde poursuive sa course folle» is the novel by Colum McCann, published by France Loisirs in hardcover (503 pages, in French).
In the New York of 1974, a tightrope walker crosses the Twin Towers; around him, Colum McCann weaves together the lives of an Irish monk in the Bronx, mothers mourning their sons killed in Vietnam, and a prostitute trying to protect her family. That real feat unites stories of faith, grief, love and resilience in a choral portrait of the city.
Original title in English: Let the Great World Spin. Translated from English (Ireland) into French by Jean-Luc Piningre.
For readers of contemporary fiction seeking choral stories set in New York and based on a real event.
