Cannot say enough about this novel. An atmospheric story in the near dystopian future.

Voilà un postapo vraiment étrange. On devine à peine ce qu'il s'est passé et pourquoi l'île s'est isolée. On comprend encore moins ce qui répugne les survivants de découvrir des "étrangers" roux.
J'ai vraiment été envoûtée par ce récit plein de mystère, à l'atmosphère lourde et sèche. La lecture est hypra fluide, les pages défilent et on ne s'arrête pas.
Ne vous attendez pourtant pas à plein d'actions bim bam boum, on suit la protagonosite dans la spirale de conséquences qui suit sa découverte. On obtient pas toutes les réponses mais j'ai aussi aimé la fin qui je pense ne plaira pas à tout le monde non plus, car elle est plutôt ouverte.
C'est une belle expérience à tenter. Laissez vous hypnotiser par la langue d'Hélène Bukowski
