«Santa Fé» is the novel by Yves Berger, published by Grasset in paperback in 2000 (284 pages, in French).
Roque, a sixty-year-old «happy melancholic», meets Léa, eighteen; his secure life is shaken. To rise to the occasion, he offers her America: a journey along National 66, from Chicago to Los Angeles, a historic and mythical road. The novel interweaves passion for a woman and for the New World; behind both beats the search for a lost youth.
