Les fiers-à-bras de l'esprit vont-ils se gondoler dans cette Venise bourrée de Hollandais ?

Les amoureux de promenades nocturnes sur le Grand Canal aimeront-ils naviguer au son des mandolines et des mitraillettes ?

Les touristes avides de folklore ne seront-ils pas intimidés par un gondolier sans slip qui ressemble tellement à Béru que ce pourrait bien être lui ?

Mais assez de questions oiseuses : embarque !

De toute façon, tu te sentiras fatalement en pays de connaissance : c'est plein de pigeons place Saint-Marc.

Il avait une jambe dans le vide, l'autre sur une peau de banane et la gueule en compote.

Il me demande de prendre ce qu'il y avait dans la poche de son blouson et de le porter à sa mère.

Il venait de descendre deux flics.

Qu'aurais-tu fait à ma place ?

Moi, tu me connais ?

J'ai pris la petite boîte.

Et alors, il s'en est suivi un de ces pataquès, mon pauvre vieux !

Non, franchement, je ne veux pas avoir l'air de rouscailler, mais des coups fourrés pareils, crois-moi, on peut s'en passer.

De quoi devenir chèvre, mon pote !

Mais n'en profite pas pour jouer au bouc !

On a beau être commotionné, c'est pas le genre de la boutique !

Bonne nouvelle : la chasse aux perdreaux vient d'ouvrir !

Oui, mais sale nouvelle pour les perdreaux !

Les flics se ramassent à la pelle dans les rues de Paname !

Il faut absolument qu'on fasse quelque chose, non ?

Alors on fait.

Béru, par exemple, se déguise en gardien de la paix. Comme il prend du service dans le quartier des putes, c'est pas triste, malgré l'hécatombe !

Franchement, si t'es contre la chicorne, la baise et la franche rigolade, vaut mieux que tu relises l'annuaire des Chemins de fer.

Si, en ouvrant cet ouvrage, le lecteur pense lutter contre l'insomnie, il en sera pour ses frais et n'aura qu'à s'entendre avec son pharmacien habituel pour l'échanger contre un tube de Gardénal.

Car ce livre est un ring, une arène, on s'y bat d'un bout à l'autre.

La série d'ouvrages que publiera San-Antonio appartient à la littérature d'action. Celle mise à la mode par Peter Cheney, JH Chase, James Cain, etc… Ici l'énigme le céde à la violence.

Ce livre doit se lire avec un revolver à la portée de la main.

Il est écrit dans une langue savoureuse et pleine de fantaisie faubourienne, mais nul doute que le héros de ce roman ne soit sympathique à tous.

Gouailleur, âpre, rusé, amer, tendre, violent, San Antonio écrit d'avantage avec ses poings qu'avec sa plume.

It began with a black man, a white woman and enough gold to ransom the world.

The man was consumed with race hate, driven to senseless slaughter by a single-minded plan for retribution. The woman was possessed by the need for every variety of sensual delight. The gold was mined secretly in Rhodesia, owned by a die-hard Nazi who had long ago sacrifice a soul and sanity to insatiable dreams of glory.

This was the terrifying trio that awaited Nick Carter in Rhodesia — on a brutal seek-and-destroy mission against an organization of assassins that had infiltrated every country of Africa.

During World War II, a Russian refugee spies for the United States

Since the great upheaval of November 1917, Alex Denilov has known nothing but war. In the civil war that followed the Bolshevik Revolution, he fought for the old imperial order. When the Reds won out, he fled west, finding work in every war that followed. Now, in 1941, he trains paratroopers in the American Southwest, helping the US Army prepare for the coming war. But Uncle Sam has bigger plans for him. The army transfers Alex to special services, where he is reunited with old colleagues from the civil war. The group shares combat skills, knowledge of the Russian language, and an intense hatred of Communists. Their mission is to assassinate Stalin. But inside this group of killers, a traitor lurks, ready to kill Alex before he attempts to save Russia from itself.

Au lieu de passer au centre des chèques postaux, aujourd'hui, j'aurais mieux fait de me consacrer à des amours ancillaires (celles que je préfère).

Au guichet, j'avise un vieux type blême et pâle des crayons qui retire de l'artiche. Où ça se complique, c'est quand je retrouve pépère, assis dans sa bagnole, bien sagement, mais un peu mort ! Alors je me mets en piste, courant de surprise en surprise au long de la rue des Macchabées.
