Book description
Translated by John CullenI was in the melancholy state of mind that often comes over me when I go to see my sister, and I think I started by getting a little lost . . .It's a Sunday in early September and a woman leaves muggy Paris to visit her sister in the western suburbs of the city. Ville-d'Avray is less than an hour away, but it seems like another world with its secluded streets and set-back houses.The sisters' relationship is ambiguous. Jane's visits to Ville-d'Avray leave her discomfited; for all Claire Marie's seeming provincial passivity, she knows exactly how to get under Jane's skin.As they settle into the torpor of the afternoon, Claire Marie describes a curious encounter from her past. Sundays are when she thinks about life - whether she expected something more from it, and whether she is still waiting for it to begin.Sharply observed and wryly funny, A Sunday in Ville-d'Avray is a haunting novel about half-shared truths and desires that can never fully be expressed.'It is a story both simple and familiar but which, in this telling, is beguiling and immensely enjoyable because of the beautifully observed details.' - Irish Times'A study of desire and contentment, time and expectation, this slim novel raises alluring questions about paths not taken.' - Publishers Weekly'This atmospheric novel plunges us into the folds of our own emotions thanks to a richly evocative style. It has the troubling melancholy of Modiano's novels and the charm of Rohmer's films.' - Gael'Evokes the scent of grass after it has rained, dead leaves burning in a back garden, the mild, melancholy scents of the Park Saint-Cloud at the start of autumn.' - Sud Ouest
