Moi j'ai un homme dans ma vie

When she married her idolised brother's best friend, Marianne thought she made a good bet on happiness. But from the start, Maxime appears distant, almost unattainable, and Marianne soon begins to fear that her dream marriage has become a prison where she is beset with the worst kind of loneliness: that of the married couple. Tragedy seems to loom right around the corner. What could have possibly gone wrong ? In this dark, yet profoundly touching novel, set against the breaking apart of a marriage, clues to understanding Marianne's predicament are slowly released, drip by drip, like an I.V. feeding. As she desperately tries to glue her marriage back together, the ghosts of her parents' divorce and her father's remarriage come back to haunt her. Intense psychological suspense surround all the leading characters as they are tightly wrapped up in different fusional and potentially explosive relationships, Marianne with her husband and brother, her twins, her husband and brother's strong friendship, Marianne and her best friend Chloé... Here we find all the themes that made Rosens's collection of short stories, Chez les Thomas on est très famille, successful: fear of abandonment, betrayal, and the emptiness spawned on incomprehension. Nicolle Rosen was a university professor before becoming a psychoanalyst and has published several essays. Her first literary work, Chez les Thomas on est très famille was published by Lattès in 2002.
