Synopsis

POINT OF NO RETURN shows the world through the eyes of a war correspondent, working in conflict zones avoided by the mainstream media, unveiling the dire state of today’s world, its disparities and brutal post-colonial arrangement – including the imperialist push for Western hegemony.“Point of No Return is one of the great novels of the 21st century. It deserves a wide readership and serious critical appraisal. Over a half century ago, in his important book “American Moderns - From Rebellion to Conformity,” the great literary critic Maxwell Geismar noted that “Our best literary work has come from writers who are outside [the dominant] intellectual orbit, where [capitalist] panic has slowly subsided into inertia.” Geismar anticipates Vltchek. Point of No Return explodes from that vital realm far beyond hegemonic control.”~ Tony Christini“A fascinating look at the world through the eyes of a war correspondent – a world few of us know.” ~ Eve Jackson (France24)“André Vltchek is a writer, the real thing, of the same calibre and breed as Hemingway and Malraux.”~ Catherine Merveilleux“This gripping novel blends fiction and autobiography; it reflects the experience of the author as a war correspondent while drawing the portrait of a globalized world coming apart at the seams. A political novel after the fashion of Malraux… it is also a meditation on the state of the world (and of literature), and a raucous escapade to the far corners of the globe.” ~ Le Grand Soir
