Gaspard ne répond plus [French]

By Anne-Marie Revol

Book Overview

In reality TV, anything can happen, like falling off a Japanese pick-up truck on an old dirt road deep in the heart of Vietnam.

Gaspard de Rosard is a contestant in a reality TV game show where his challenge is to hitch-hike across the Asian continent. But his trip ends abruptly when he tumbles from a truck into the bottom of a ditch on the side of the road...
Between Paris and a tiny village lost in the middle of rice paddies in North Vietnam, the search for Gaspard will include a fortune-telling antique dealer, a romantic detective, a whimsical diarist, frantic television producers and an old bitter tribal chief, My Hi n, who is determined to enlist Gaspard's help in saving their village from imminent danger. Gaspard wonders how he will ever make it home.
In this humorous and free-spirited novel, everyone is searching for something on the other side of the world... for better or for worse. But, perhaps, to find what they are looking for, they must lose everything first.
