Synopsis "Point of No Return"

POINT OF NO RETURN shows the world through the eyes of a war correspondent, working in conflict zones avoided by the mainstream media, unveiling the dire state of today's world, its disparities and brutal post-colonial arrangement - including the imperialist push for Western hegemony."Point of No Return is one of the great novels of the 21st century. It deserves a wide readership and serious critical appraisal. Over a half century ago, in his important book "American Moderns - From Rebellion to Conformity," the great literary critic Maxwell Geismar noted that "Our best literary work has come from writers who are outside [the dominant] intellectual orbit, where [capitalist] panic has slowly subsided into inertia." Geismar anticipates Vltchek. Point of No Return explodes from that vital realm far beyond hegemonic control." Tony Christini"A fascinating look at the world through the eyes of a war correspondent - a world few of us know." Eve Jackson (France24)"André Vltchek is a writer, the real thing, of the same calibre and breed as Hemingway and Malraux." Catherine Merveilleux"This gripping novel blends fiction and autobiography; it reflects the experience of the author as a war correspondent while drawing the portrait of a globalized world coming apart at the seams. A political novel after the fashion of Malraux... it is also a meditation on the state of the world (and of literature), and a raucous escapade to the far corners of the globe." Le Grand Soir
