Arthur & George

(Author) Julian Barnes
Format: Paperback
Price: £0.00

Condamné pour le meurtre d'un cheval, George Edalji, jeune avoué d'origine parisienne, est emprisonné puis relâché sans avoir été innocenté. Son teint mat et sa parfaite intégration sociale dérangent l'Angleterre bien-pensante de ce début de XXe siècle. Fragile, effacé maladroit et démuni, il va faire appel à Arthur Conan Doyle, alors un des hommes les plus célèbres d'Angleterre, le créateur de Sherlock Holmes... Extraordinaire tableau de la société victorienne, ce roman. inspiré d'un fait réel qui avait divisé l'Angleterre comme en France l'affaire Dreyfus, est aussi le plus passionnant et le plus haletant des thrillers.
