Ordinarily he is too busy for introspection, but now the isolation forced upon him releases to the surface of his mind a traumatic experience from his own childhood, linked also to illness - a crime committed by his parents. Family ties appear as family lies, sustained by hypocrisy, fear - and love. " Simenon's mastery shows in the vividness of the pictures arising out of a long-buried memory, which stand outin the light of true flashes of recognition. The past as resuscitated in the claustrophobic sickroom atmosphere has a haunting quality, an eerie suspense. This is a remarkable study of family relationships, destructive and contructive, and of a father's unspoken communication with a beloved, threatened child. ". N° de réf. du vendeur 8522
