Chroniques de la Nationale 7 #1

A sun-drenched snapshot of mid-century French road-trip culture, this opening volume by Thierry Dubois brings the legendary Route Nationale 7 vividly to life. The cover sets the scene perfectly: a bustling roadside stop somewhere in the south of France, with a cheerful red Renault 4CV, a Citroën, and a loaded camion jostling for space past a Mobiloil garage, a nougat shop, and an Azur fuel station banner fluttering in the summer breeze. If you've ever romanticized the great French summer migration — families piling into small cars and hitting the open road — Vacances sur la route looks like the perfect place to start.
