Les confessions de Nat Turner

Les confessions de Nat Turner
S''inspirant de la révolte d''un groupe d''esclaves noirs qui, sous la conduite de Nat Turner, avait, en août 1831, jeté la terreur parmi les Blancs dans une région écartée du sud-est de la Virginie, William Styron, dans Les confessions de Nat Turner, fait œuvre à la fois d''historien de sociologue, de peintre de mœurs et de psychologue, sans jamais oublier qu''il est avant tout romancier. Cela l''amène à prendre certaines libertés avec les faits, mais lui permet de brosser un tableau coloré de la vie dans les plantations du sud des Etats-Unis avant la guerre de Sécession et de nous présenter une analyse aiguë d''un dangereux illuminé, mystique sanguinaire et obsédé sexuel. Seul l''auteur du Choix de Sophie pouvait raconter cette histoire violente et perverse.

Set this House on Fire

Set this House on Fire
The day after Peter Leverett met his old friend Mason Flagg in Sambuco, Italy, Mason was found dead. The hours leading up to his death were a nightmare for Peter--both in their violence and in their maddening unreality. The blaze of events which followed was, Peter soon realised, ignited by a conflict between two men: Mason Flagg himself and Cass Kinsolving, a tortured, self-destructive painter, a natural enemy and prey to the monstrous evil of Mason Flagg. Three events--murder, rape and suicide--explode in this relentless and passionate novel, almost overwhelming in its conception of the varieties of good and evil.
