The past
Edité par Jonathan Cape - paru en 2015
Three sisters and a brother meet up in their grandparents? old house for three long, hot summer weeks. The house is full of memories of their childhood and their past -- their mother took them there when she left their father ? but now they may have to sell it. And under the idyllic surface, there are tensions. Roland has come with his new wife and his sisters don?t like her. Kasim, the twenty-year-old son of Alice?s ex-boyfriend, makes plans to seduce Molly, Roland?s teenage daughter. Fran?s children uncover an ugly secret in a ruined cottage in the woods. Passion erupts where it?s least expected, blasting the quiet self-possession of Harriet, the oldest sister. A way of life ? bourgeois, literate, ritualised ? winds down to its inevitable end.
