As with several recent novels I've taken on, started out quite slow but I warmed to it much more as it went on. The dark, abrupt opening starts things off on a right keel but my favourite sections came when Thérèse was finally reunited with Bernard and things become quite desperate. A portrait of a woman suffocated by provincial life, by ennui, by social custom, by her own inability to find herself in her cramped surroundings and ultimately (at least by insinuation) by her inability to realise her own sexuality apart from through her quite abstract and elusive fantasy life. Her bovarysme doesn't even let her taste the same temporary joys as Emma did, and though she ultimately gets "freedom" of a sort here it's one which promises not a great deal more than her previous confinement.

Fran ois Mauriac's masterpiece and one of the greatest Catholic novels, Th r se Desqueyroux is the haunting story of an unhappily married young woman whose desperation drives her to thoughts of murder. Mauriac paints an unforgettable portrait of spiritual isolation and despair, but he also dramatizes the complex realities of forgiveness, grace, and redemption. Set in the countryside outside Bordeaux, in a region of overwhelming heat and sudden storms, the novel's landscape reflects the inner world of Th r se, a figure who has captured the imaginations of readers for generations. Raymond N. MacKenzie's translation of Th r se Desqueyroux, the first since 1947, captures the poetic lyricism of Mauriac's prose as well as the intensity of his stream-of-consciousness narrative. MacKenzie also provides notes and a biographical and interpretive introduction to help readers better appreciate the mastery of Fran ois Mauriac, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1952. This volume also includes a translation of "Conscience, The Divine Instinct," Mauriac's first draft of the story, never before available in English. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
