En savoir plus sur le livre

In a seemingly perfect democracy, where everything is allowed except adventure, the story of Globalia unfolds. This utopian world is covered by a massive glass dome, offering people a life without wars and age limits while protecting them from the uncivilized areas outside. However, the young Baikal finds this perfect existence unbearable and longs for freedom, fresh air, and the sea. Together with his girlfriend Kate, he escapes but is quickly captured by the 'Societal Protection' and sent to the Non-Zone. The government needs a clear enemy to maintain control over the population, leading to an exciting chase after Baikal. In this gripping social novel, Jean-Christophe Rufin questions our worldview and shows that what appears good is not necessarily so. With his experience as a co-founder of 'Doctors Without Borders' and an activist in development policy, Rufin addresses a politically charged topic in a compelling and complex way. Rarely has a political issue been told so multifaceted and thrillingly in a thriller.
