Description
Nouvelle-Écosse, 1895. Un premier roman original, ambitieux, aussi sombre que réussi, dans lequel huit voix se font entendre, sous forme de journaux intimes ou de lettres. Un des deux personnages principaux est un éminent et affreux mycologue convaincu que sa femme est hystérique puisqu'elle se refuse à lui. Les "soins" qu'il lui prodigue sont variés : des traitements réfrigérants à la morphine, en passant par le régime cru et la laisse à chien. A la mort de son époux, la pauvre réussira-t-elle à émerger de tant de noirceur et d'humiliations? Et le souhaite-t-elle vraiment? De toute façon, l'entourage, aussi "bizarre" que l'héroïne, ne peut être d'aucun secours. A noter que l'oeuvre peut s'éclairer à la lecture parallèle de l'excellent et plus optimiste "Julia Paradise" (Rod Jones, 1988). [SDM].
