About this listen

Pierre et Rachel vivent une liaison courte mais intense à Châteauroux à la fin des années 1950. Pierre, érudit, issu d'une famille bourgeoise, fascine Rachel, employée à la Sécurité sociale. Il refuse de l'épouser, mais ils font un enfant. L'amour maternel devient pour Rachel et Christine le socle d'une vie heureuse. Pierre voit sa fille épisodiquement. Des années plus tard, Rachel apprend qu'il la viole. Le choc est immense. Un sentiment de culpabilité s'immisce progressivement entre la mère et la fille.

Christine Angot entreprend ici de mettre à nu une relation des plus complexes, entre amour inconditionnel pour la mère et ressentiment, dépeignant sans concession une guerre sociale amoureuse et le parcours d'une femme, détruite par son péché originel : la passion vouée à l'homme qui aura finalement anéanti tous les repères qu'elle s'était construits.©2015 Éditions Flammarion (P)2015 Éditions Gallimard
