Les princes vagabonds
Princes ou bandits, ils font la paire : Zelikman, médecin mélancolique à l'esprit dangereusement acéré et Amram, géant noir à la langue aussi affûtée que la hache qui ne le quitte jamais. Vivant de subterfuges, ils tracent leur route à travers les monts du Caucase, vers l'an 950. Rien ne les a cependant préparés à se transformer en défenseurs d'un prince de l'Empire khazar, un jeune héritier inexpérimenté brûlant de reconquérir son trône. Un tel projet nécessite une ruse sans limites et une folle témérité. Zelikman et Amram ne manquent ni de l'une ni de l'autre. Mais sont-ils prêts à sacrifier leur insouciance pour devenir les généraux d'une révolution d'envergure ?

Michael Chabon is an American author. Chabon's first novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (1988), was published when he was 25. He followed it with a second novel, Wonder Boys (1995), and two short-story collections. In 2000, Chabon published The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, a novel that John Leonard, in a 2007 review of a later novel, called Chabon's magnum opus. It received the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2001. His novel The Yiddish Policemen's Union, an alternate history mystery novel, was published in 2007 and won the Hugo, Sidewise, Nebula and Ignotus awards; his serialized novel Gentlemen of the Road appeared in book form in the fall of that same year. Chabon's most recent novel, Telegraph Avenue, published in 2012 and billed as "a twenty-first century Middlemarch," concerns the tangled lives of two families in the Bay Area of San Francisco in the year 2004.
