A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Robert Cormier was of French Canadian extraction; his family settled in the USA around the turn of the century. His Roman Catholicism, he said, had been throughout his life ‘boon and burden, giving me moments of great illumination and moments of shadows, when I didn’t think I was doing good enough.’ He guessed (correctly) that this shows in his writing.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Do not pick up the phone. Let your mother or me answer it. If it' s for you, I will hand it over. Alone in the house, you do not answer.

The phone calls come every year, waking Denny up in the middle of the night. Every year, Denny's father calmly answers. He never speaks. He simply listens. But this year it's different. It's twenty-five years since the fire, the terrible tragedy for which Denny's father bears the blame. The tragedy which triggers these calls, year in, year out.

This year, Denny has had enough. This year, he will pick up the phone – and face the consequences.
