A kind man, with discernable charisma, and more agile with his hands than his words. He sees her, the wanderer, for the first time from behind, thumbs up on the side of the road, carrying her backpack and her rough life. She is a pretty redheaded twig who almost blends into the autumn landscape. By chance these two unhappy souls meet a second time. They are about to experience the most beautiful, the most unpredictable adventure that is: meeting the other sincerely and without any filter or social game. Step by step, Monty and Lilou discover each other, apprehend each other, grow fond of each other. But things are not that easy : Lilou's mood swings, her secret past, her childhood that reappears suddenly, as violent as her fits of jealousy... And always the unexpected... Two beautiful characters revolve around this duo: Paul, widower of Angela to whom he still speaks in the afterlife, and Gladys, an older lady in the twilight of her life, who decides to get a grip on her existence. Rouquine is about what it means to be a human and what is humanity, captured in the heat and the shifting of feelings that touch you right through the heart. And the novel becomes an ode to freedom, the freedom to live, nothing else.
