    About this ebook

    Twenty two years old, on the first vacation of his professional life, Michael Howard desires to break out a little, to see a bit of the world during these two weeks before returning to the orderly confines of the giant corporation he works in. A huge baseball fan, he goes out to the ballpark: he drinks a little in his favorite bar and in a daring manner falls in with one of the tough characters who habituates the bar. Against a very remote background of an American war in Saladdin, an oil rich Arabic country, he pursues a variety of adventures. And longing for love he falls in love.
