Un mauvais garçon by Deepti Kapoor
Un mauvais garçon by Deepti Kapoor Book Summary
Elle a vingt ans à New Delhi. Elle n'a ni père (parti vivre à Singapour), ni mère (décédée), ni repères. Sa tante, chez qui elle vit, cherche à la marier. Elle brûle d'une énergie qui n'a nulle part où aller, alors elle se plie aux conventions et garde ses pensées pour elle-même.
Un jour, dans un café, il la dévisage. Plus âgé, il semble venir d'ailleurs. Il est laid, et pourtant tout chez lui attire la jeune fille.
Il l'initiera au sexe, à l'alcool, aux drogues ; aux plaisirs du corps et à la noirceur de l'âme. Elle bravera les interdits et découvrira avec lui un New Delhi sensuel et dangereux où se côtoient la richesse et la putrescence, le profane et le sacré, et où pulse une rage de vivre que rien n'arrête.
Portrait de l'Inde moderne, spirale d'amour et de destruction virtuose, Un mauvais garçon vibre de désir et de révolte, jusqu'à l'incandescence.
Traduit de l'anglais (Inde) par Michèle Albaret-Maatsch
