«Rien que du ciel bleu» is the novel by Thomas McGuane, published by Editions 10/18 in paperback (424 pages, in French).
Frank Copenhaver, a former hippie and Sixties rocker, is now a prosperous businessman in a Montana town. When his wife leaves him, his orderly life falls apart: hounded by debts and caught between romantic encounters and nostalgia for his youth, he flees a storm. A story of lost illusions told with humour and emotion.
The French edition of «Nothing but Blue Skies» (originally published in 1992), translated by Brice Matthieussent, appeared in the «Domaine étranger» collection.
For readers of contemporary fiction who enjoy characters in crisis, rural American settings and a tone between humour and melancholy.
