The Little Stranger
3 journalers for this copy...
Tout ça ne méritait peut-être pas 512 pour un tel dénouement. Plutôt très bien écrit, mais impression de répétition de trame sans arrêt, on ne va de nulle part à rien, et c'est peut-être l'effet recherché, mais je n'y ai pas tout à fait trouvé mon compte. Et le praising de Stephen King, n'en parlons pas...
Bref, j'ai d'autres textes à lire de Sarah Waters, et je pense que la thématique me correspondra mieux que pour celui-ci.

SYNOPSIS IN ENGLISH
One postwar summer in his home of rural Warwickshire, Dr. Faraday, the son of a maid who has built a life of quiet respectability as a country physician, is called to a patient at lonely Hundreds Hall. Home to the Ayres family for over two centuries, the Georgian house, once impressive and handsome, is now in decline, its masonry crumbling, its gardens choked with weeds, the clock in its stable yard permanently fixed at twenty to nine. Its owners—mother, son, and daughter—are struggling to keep pace with a changing society, as well as with conflicts of their own. But are the Ayreses haunted by something more sinister than a dying way of life? Little does Dr. Faraday know how closely, and how terrifyingly, their story is about to become intimately entwined with his.
