Comment dire Los Angeles, cette ville tentaculaire ? Sophie-Anne Delhomme, auteure de Quitter Dakar (le Rouergue, 2010) entend parcourir tous les rêves, tous les mirages de la cité légendaire. Par de courts fragments comme autant de microfictions, son récit cerne petit à petit une société faite de mille désirs parallèles. On y suit Olivia une photographe dans son travail d'archivage du réel, on y découvre surtout les nombreux homeless de la ville de passage dans un shelter (un abri) où des bénévoles leur coupent les cheveux et les maquillent.
Au fil des pages se dessinent alors une communauté de destins, résumés par ce vers du poète Langston Hughes : "What happens to a dream deferred ? " Qu'arrive-t-il à un rêve qui dure et ne s'accomplit pas ? Sunset Paradise est le roman de ces rêves inaccomplis.
