toujours coincés dans des brasiers infernaux, les habitants de Shaeganna, eux, ont construit une véritable forteresse à l'abri des dangers de dame Nature. Un lieu paisible en surface, mais pourri de l'intérieur. Louanie vit comme une recluse à l'extérieur de ce royaume; ce n'est pas par choix, mais par obligation. Vendue par ses parents à un retraité mythomane, elle ne peut que se soumettre à lui. Qui aurait pensé que de souffrir toutes ces années aux mains de ce mari sadique lui ouvrirait les portes de cette cité tant convoitée ? Bernée par la croyance que cette nouvelle vie serait digne d'un rêve, vu l'opulence qui y règne, Lou était loin de s'imaginer que de porter l'uniforme d'une Shae lui coûterait tout, même son identité... Elle comprend alors qu'elle a quitté un monstre pour un autre, sans pitié. Là où la torture est une tradition, naître femme est une abominationLa frugalité du temps (GF #112e)

REVIEW &“A gripping tour-de-force torn from tomorrow&’s headlines.&” ― David Demchuk, author of Red X and The Bone Mother &“A bold dystopian novel that captivates with its dread and depth. The Marigold is unhinged literary horror that goes right to the source of decay.&” ― Iain Reid, award-winning author of I&’m Thinking of Ending Things , Foe , and We Spread In a near-future Toronto buffeted by environmental chaos and unfettered development, an unsettling new lifeform begins to grow beneath the surface, feeding off the past The Marigold, a gleaming Toronto condo tower, sits a half-empty promise: a stack of scuffed rental suites and undelivered amenities that crumbles around its residents as a mysterious sludge spreads slowly through it. Public health inspector Cathy Jin investigates this toxic mold as it infests the city&’s infrastructure, rotting it from within, while Sam &“Soda&” Dalipagic stumbles on a dangerous cache of data while cruising the streets in his Camry, waiting for his next rideshare alert. On the outskirts of downtown, 13-year-old Henrietta Brakes chases a friend deep underground after he&’s snatched into a sinkhole by a creature from below. All the while, construction of the city&’s newest luxury tower, Marigold II, has stalled. Stanley Marigold, the struggling son of the legendary developer behind this project, decides he must tap into a hidden reserve of old power to make his dream a reality―one with a human cost. Weaving together disparate storylines and tapping into the realms of body horror, urban dystopia, and ecofiction, The Marigold explores the precarity of community and the fragile designs that bind us togetherLa Vallée de l'étrange
