✦ Synopsis
Je connaissais Martin. J’avais longtemps skié avec lui par le passé. Pendant trois ans nous avions entrepris une série de balades. Lui descendait directement les pentes raides en une série de virages souples et faciles, je mettais deux fois plus de temps en coupant la pente au prix de fastidieuses conversions. J’admirais son aisance et sa vitalité, j’aimais aussi ses silences et sa bonne humeur. Alors, quand l’avalanche l’a enseveli et broyé, j’ai accusé le coup. Et je suis allé soutenir sa femme, Elsa. Un joli bout de femme à vous réconcilier avec le genre féminin, moi qui me méfie des femmes comme du lait sur le feu. Ça a été le début d’une série de surprises qui ont failli m’ensevelir à leur tour, mais six pieds sous terre. Une avalanche qui m’a dévasté la poitrine et anéanti.
