Frédéric Presles ; Franz-Olivier Giesbert , Stéphane Salord
Marseille : Sur les traces de Monte-Cristo
Hardcover, 146 pages, Texte en Francais, Tres belle exemplaire, 255 x 255 x 20 mm, jacquette, illustrations en couleur. ISBN 9782368691618. Voici la véritable enquête que l'auteur a menée en foulant les pas du plus célèbre évadé de France : Le comte de Monte-Cristo ! En s'appuyant sur des extraits du livre d'Alexandre Dumas, Frédéric Presles retrouve les lieux fréquentés par le romancier lors de son repérage pour documenter son histoire. Il nous les montre tels qu'ils sont devenus dans le Marseille d'aujourd'hui. Il se penche aussi sur la notoriété que son héros a apportée à cette ville où se déroule la trame principale du roman. Comment est né le roman ? Qui sont les héritiers du comte de Monte-Cristo ? Que sont devenus les décors de ce récit d'aventure mondialement connu ? Pourquoi se déplace-t-on de Chine pour visiter le château d'If ? Pourquoi le célèbre cigare a-t-il pris le nom du comte ? Comment le défi Monte-Cristo a-t-il vu le jour ? Peut-on arpenter la cellule de Dantès et découvrir le tunnel qui lui offrira la liberté après quatorze années de détention ? Autant d'explications apportées par les recherches menées par l'auteur et son éclairage de néo-Marseillais sur la cité phocéenne. Frédéric Presles a découvert Marseille et ses décors dignes des plus grands plateaux de cinéma lors d'un tournage consacré à son véritable héros marseillais : Henri-Germain Delauze, le génial créateur de la Comex. C'est après cette rencontre déterminante qu'il a décidé d'y déposer ses valises définitivement. Séduit par cette approche, Franz-Olivier Giesbert, que Frédéric Presles a rencontré lors d'une séance photo, a immédiatement répondu favorablement pour imaginer la préface de ce livre singulier.
