Fiction. Literature. Thriller. HTML:The international sensation that sold half a million copies in France and the subject of a new film by Roman Polanski: a chilling story about a friendship gone terrifyingly toxic.

Winner of Le Prix Renaudot 2015
Winner of Le Prix Goncourt des Lycéens 2015

Overwhelmed by the huge success of her latest novel, exhausted and suffering from a crippling inability to write, Delphine meets L., who embodies everything Delphine has always secretly admired; she is a glittering image of feminine sophistication and spontaneity and she has an uncanny knack of always saying the right thing. Unusually intuitive, L. senses Delphine's vulnerability and slowly but deliberately carves herself a niche in the writer's life. However, as L. makes herself indispensable to Delphine, the intensity of this unexpected friendship manifests itself in increasingly sinister ways. As their lives become more and more entwined, L. threatens Delphine's identity, both as a writer and as an individual.

This sophisticated psychological thriller skillfully blurs the line between fact and fiction, reality and artifice. Delphine de Vigan has crafted a terrifying, insidious, metafictional thriller; a haunting vision of seduction and betrayal; a book which in its hungering for truth implicates the reader, too-even as it holds us in its thral

Un livre qui se cache, qui ne se dévoile que petit à petit, et pourtant qui donne très rapidement des indices. Une mise en abîme du travail d’écriture qui multiplie les assertions de réel et dans laquelle il est parfois difficile de déterminer la part de fiction.

Bon, des longueurs et perso, j’aurais presque aimé un peu plus de trash pour un thriller plus soutenu ( )

Well, this was a mindfuck. Admittedly, it was slow to get going and the first third of the book left me feeling "meh" and I did consider giving up on it. I am glad I persevered because the creepiness factor ramped right up and it finished strong.

The book poses a few questions about what is real and what is fiction, leaving the reader an opportunity to come to a range of conclusions about it, but it was really well done. It wasn't irritating in the way some books are where all the loose ends aren't tied up or the author pulls a "haha, this was all a dream and none of it happened" twist, leave the reader feeling conned.

I enjoyed trying to work out how much of the story was true or made up, and the real motivations of L. and whether she was even real or not. ( )

« Encore aujourd’hui, il m’est difficile d’expliquer comment notre relation s’est développée si rapidement, et de quelle manière L. a pu, en l’espace de quelques mois, occuper une place dans ma vie.
L. exerçait sur moi une véritable fascination.
L. m’étonnait, m’amusait, m’intriguait. M’intimidait. (…) L. exerçait sur moi une douce emprise, intime et troublante, dont j’ignorais la cause et la portée. »

> Par K. Moussou, P. Frey, O. de Lamberterie (Elle) : Les 39 meilleurs livre de poche du moment
6 juin 2018 - Une écrivaine, submergée par le succès de son dernier roman, et assaillie par le doute, rencontre lors d’une soirée une jeune femme avec qui elle se lie. Amie fidèle ou toxique ? Fiction ou réalité ? Ce roman haletant, que Roman Polanski vient d’adapter sur grand écran, a des faux airs du « Misery » de Stephen King, et interroge la fonction de la littérature.
Nathalie Dupuis

> Puissante réflexion sur la pouvoir de la littérature, ce roman “d’après une histoire vraie” raconte l’emprise progressive d’une femme sur une autre femme, écrivain.
—Sabine Audrerie – La Croix

> Formidable roman, malin, machiavélique, manipulateur de lecteur, ce récit est un déchirement. Parce qu’il faut bien le lâcher de temps en temps pour dormir un peu.
—Pierre Vavasseur – Aujourd’hui en France

> L'auteur met en scène son double, secoué par le succès de son dernier roman et aux prises avec une amitié dangereuse. Une fiction qui donne le vertige.
—Nathalie Crom, Télérama

The first 150 pages of this book are a real drag, a weak story about self-indulgent and self-absorbed people that you can't possibly care about. From there on in, however, it does improve, although never reaching great heights. The author Delphine suffers a massive case of writing block and starts challenging everything she believed in. She then meets L., the woman she has always wanted to be, sophisticated, cool and beautiful. Gradually , however, L. moves from being a supportive friend to obsessive controller of Delphine's life. Things really take a downward turn when Delphine secretly tries to cure her writer's block by planning to write a book about L.'s life based on the fragments L has told her. When L. discovers this, the situation become Misery-like. The shock revelation at the end however will come as no surprise. Not a great read by any means, but if you can get through the first third of the book, it is worth continuing. It drags itself above being self-indulgent tripe by quality terse writing and cultivating a genuine interest in seeing where its going. Worthwhile in the final analysis. ( )

Einige Monate nach dem Erscheinen meines jüngsten Romans hörte ich auf zu schreiben.
A few months after my last novel came out, I stopped writing. For almost three years, I didn't write a single line. Hackneyed phrases sometimes have to be taken literally: I didn't write a formal letter, a thank-you note, a holiday postcard or a shopping list. Nothing that required any sort of effort or necessitated any concern about form. Not one line, not one word. The sight of a pad, notebook or index card made me feel nauseous. -Chapter 1
