The end of the Affair, Graham Greene

Résumé:

The novelist Maurice Bendrix's love affair with his friend's wife, Sarah, had begun in London during the Blitz. One day, inexplicably and without warning, Sarah had broken off the relationship. It seemed impossible that there could be a rival for her heart. Yet two years later, his jealousy and grief awakened by a chance encounter, Bendrix sends Parkis, a private detective, to follow Sarah and find out the truth. As his love turns to obsession, Bendrix begins to question everything he has ever believed in.

Mon avis:

C'est un classique et ça se sent...les questions existentielles de Bendrix font souvent echo aux nôtres et nous invitent à l'introspection (questions sur la religion, sur la relation de couple...) et l'histoire entre les 3 personnages principaux (2 hommes qui aiment la même femme) est très belle. En revanche, le rythme d'un classique est décidément bien loin de ce que j'aime en ce moment... abandon à 75% du livre....
