Summer of 85
What do you dream of when you’re a 16-year-old and in a seaside resort in Normandy in the 80s? A best friend? A lifelong teen pact? Scooting off on adventures on a boat or a motorbike? Living life at breakneck speed? No. You dream of death. Because you can’t get a bigger kick than dying. And that’s why you save it till the very end. The summer holidays are just beginning, and this story recounts how Alex grew into himself.
