La simplicité de la vie

LA SIMPLICITÉ DE LA VIE est un roman en quatre parties explorant la franchise, ses conséquences et ses avantages. 1. UN SIMPLE VILLAGE présente une société où tous furent éduqués à toujours dire ce qu’ils pensent franchement et à rapidement désarmer tout conflit. 2. UN VER DANS LA POMME montre une personne prenant lentement avantage de la situation, vingt ans plus tard, et amorce une lente contagion de la population en commençant par ses proches. 3. LE MIROIR reprend sensiblement le même scénario que Un simple village mais, cette fois, trente ans après Un ver dans la pomme, et explore les conséquences du changement social maintenant bien en place. 4. LE SEUL AMI DE L’HOMME présente quelques épisodes de la vie contemporaine d’un « dernier de son espèce » avec ses voisins, ses amis, ses collègues de travail et son chien—la seule présence réellement franche sans sa vie.
