By 1322, Mathilde of Westminster was considered the finest physician in London. But in her years as lady-in-waiting to Princess Isabella, she was drawn into the murky politics of the English court, where sudden, mysterious death was part of the tapestry of life. Many years later, Mathilde looks back and chronicles her turbulent life. With her sharp, suspicious intellect ready to distinguish between a fatality and an unnatural death, Mathilde is confronted by a host of chilling murders. The source of these horrors is the fierce political rivalry between Philip of France and Edward of England. This manifests itself in a series of gruesome killings, one of which actually took place during Edward II`s Coronation, when a knight of the Royal...

A la fin d’une chasse, pendant la curée, les chiens dévorent les entrailles de la bête tuée. Pour le jeune Zola, qui déteste son époque, c’est le cœur de Paris, entaillé par les larges avenues de Napoléon III, que des spéculateurs véreux s’arrachent. Ce deuxième volume des Rougon-Macquart, histoire naturelle et sociale d’une famille sous le Second Empire, est l’un des plus violents. Zola ne pardonne pas ces fortunes rapides qui inondent les allées du Bois d’attelages élégants, de toilettes de Worms et de bijoux éclatants. Aristide Saccard a réussi. Mais tout s’est dénaturé autour de lui: son épouse, Renée, la femme qui...

In this imaginative fable of ageing and the other tales collected here - including "The Cut-Glass Bowl", in which an ill-meant gift haunts a family`s misfortunes, "The Four Fists", where a man`s life is shaped by a series of punches to his face, and the revelry, mobs and anguish of "May Day" - F.
