Tras siete años apartado de la carretera, Driver regenta un próspero negocio que le permite vivir honradamente junto a su prometida Irene. El que habÃa sido uno de los mejores especialistas de Hollywood de dÃa y mercenario al volante para todo tipo de criminales por la noche, quizá haya conseguido alejarse para siempre de un oficio que casi le costó la vida. Pero la tan codiciada paz se desmorona cuando Irene es brutalmente asesinada. Driver, ciego de ira, deberá afrontar su destino: conducir como el mismÃsimo diablo hasta vengar la muerte de quien tanto le habÃa amado. Change? No. What we do is adapt. Get by. Time you’re ten, twelve years old, it’s pretty much set in you, what you’re going to be like, what your life’s going to be. É seguindo as derradeiras considerações de Bernie Rose que Sallis continua a saga do nosso Driver, não há mudanças, apenas adaptações: o estilo não-linear e minimalista, a essência e sina do protagonista entre o silêncio, o trágico e a violência. Cette suite de Drive, du même auteur, possède les mêmes qualités que son prédécesseur, sans toutefois donner un goût de déjà -vu. L'auteur se repenche sur la vie du Chauffeur, plusieurs années après les évènements relatés dans Drive. Il parvient à instaurer une ambiance très particulière, en alternant des scènes où nonchalance, contemplation, discours décalés sont les maîtres mots avec des scènes de violence pure, rapide, efficace. On ressort heureux d'avoir suivi une nouvelles fois ces aventures et on espère y revenir. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Driver has left the old life, become Paul West, and founded a successful business back in Phoenix. Walking down the street one day, he and his fiancée are attacked by two men and, while Driver dispatches both, his fiancée is killed. Sinking back into anonymity, aided by his friend Felix, an ex-gangbanger and Desert Storm vet, Driver retreats but finds that his past stalks him and will not stop. He has to turn and face it. Because he drives. That's what he No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
