Julien Delpech and Denis Rousseau dream of a musical career. In the 1960s, they founded the Bathyscaphes, a Shadows-style rock band, and then, in the 1970s, the Fusibles, who played a rhythm and blues/reggae fusion. Going beyond the strict confines of these two groups' stories, *Les Fusibles (pètent les plombs)* is above all a novel about the transition to adulthood. For all the characters who frolic and struggle in this adventure, it's now a matter of moving from childhood dreams to action. Of determining how far they are willing to go to satisfy their passion, to write their future, knowing that the slightest mistake on the blank page will have immediate consequences. Alongside them, Delphine the intellectual, Armelle the globetrotter, and Roméo the crooner will learn the ropes, each with the tools life, their upbringing, and their social background have given them. While the tone is comedic, the novel reflects life: drama sometimes rubs shoulders with friendship and love. Laughter and smiles abound. Publication date: February 1, 2024. Order now
