Description

"Qu'est-ce que ça veut dire, moderato cantabile ? — Je ne sais pas." Une leçon de piano, un enfant obstiné, une mère aimante, pas de plus simple expression de la vie tranquille d'une ville de province. Mais un cri soudain vient déchirer la trame, révélant sous la retenue de ce récit d'apparence classique une tension qui va croissant dans le silence jusqu'au paroxysme final. "Quand même, dit Anne Desbarèdes, tu pourrais t'en souvenir une fois pour toutes. Moderato, ça veut dire modéré, et cantabile, ça veut dire chantant, c'est facile." Paru en 1958, ce roman de Marguerite Duras a été traduit dans le monde entier.
