A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

Frederic Tuten grabs Tintin by his quiff, yanks him out of his celibacy, life and innocence and drops him into sex, death, and experience... Wildly inventive... Tintin in the New World is a serious novel hiding behind a comic book conceit. --The Times

Tuten s novel offers the reader a pleasure no less keen than that of Herge s comic albums, although of an entirely different genre. It is a pleasure of the mind, not easily come to, but absolutely worth it once you are there: the pleasure, I suppose, of coming to a new world. --The Believer

This strange and memorable novel... its strength lies in its extraordinary use of language, which combines fastidious exactness with a bizarre yet persuasive dreamlike quality. --Jonathan Coe, London Review of Books

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Tintin, one of the world s favourite characters, has travelled to Yucatan and Tibet, the South Sea and even to the moon. But he has never journeyed into his own mind. Tintin, the boy detective, is trapped in the body and psyche of a teenager, while he fights evil his own demons sleep. Then he is called to Machu Pinchu, accompanied by Captain Haddock and Snowy, where he meets the woman he will fall in love with. Instantly recognisable as Herge s creation, Frederic Tuten makes Tintin his own. In the new world of his own self-awareness Tintin faces his most incredible adventure yet; for the first time Tintin realises that he has the power to kill, the ability to hate and that he has a soul capable of becoming one with all living things.
