 "Vieillir n'est, au fond, pas autre chose que n'avoir plus peur de son passé."

Cette citation résume parfaitement la portée du roman. Une femme, assez âgée, qui revient "reflect", se confesse presque sur vingt-quatre heures de sa vie passée qui l'ont marquée.
Zweig a un style littéraire remarquable, absolument divin. Il décrit l'obsession d'une manière très réelle et poétique à la fois.

Cette nouvelle est assez particulière comparée aux autres que j'ai lu (Chess et Lettre à une inconnue) puisque l'obsession n'a pas l'air d'etre décrite par celui qui en est victime. Du moins, pas de premier abord.... Deux obsessions, qui ne peuvent coexister (littéralement lol); et une exploration de la nature humaine truly UNMATCHEDD

I loved it!!!
