With the book Un jour dans la nuit, the illustrator Virgule Dureuil and the journalist Foucault Duchange plunge the readers into the heart of the renovation of a mythical railroad line: the Côte Bleue. This line, which connects Marseille to Miramas, reveals some of the most beautiful landscapes of western Marseille, between the dark green of the pines, the golden cliffs of the creeks and the clear blue of the sea. The line also has many viaducts, bridges and ancient tunnels. This fascinating book offers an unprecedented dive into the intimate and human dimension of a construction site that had to stop in the spring of 2020 during the first containment, and that will eventually resume. We follow Lucille and Cemal, the two heroes of this graphic novel, who after a long break, will have the pleasure to find their machines, their colleagues, to work together again and to come out of the shadows to find the light.
