À propos de cet audio
A Times Best Book of 2019.
'Paver is one of Britain's modern greats. This sinister, gothic chiller shows why' BIG ISSUE, Books of the Year 2019.
"Something has been let loose..."
In Edwardian Suffolk, a manor house stands alone in a lost corner of the Fens: a glinting wilderness of water whose whispering reeds guard ancient secrets. Maud is a lonely child growing up without a mother, ruled by her repressive father.
When he finds a painted medieval devil in a graveyard, unhallowed forces are awakened.
Maud's battle has begun. She must survive a world haunted by witchcraft, the age-old legends of her beloved fen – and the even more nightmarish demons of her father's past.
Spanning five centuries, Wakenhyrst is a darkly gothic thriller about murderous obsession and one girl's longing to fly free by the bestselling author of Dark Matter and Thin Air. Wakenhyrst is an outstanding new piece of story-telling, a tale of mystery and imagination laced with terror. It is a masterwork in the modern gothic tradition that ranges from Mary Shelley and Bram Stoker to Neil Gaiman and Sarah Perry.©2019 Michelle Paver (P)2020 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc.

Histoire1
When Elsie married handsome young heir Rupert Bainbridge, she believed she was destined for a life of luxury. But pregnant and widowed just weeks after their wedding, with her new servants resentful and the local villagers actively hostile, Elsie has only her late husband’s awkward cousin for company. Or so she thinks. Inside her new home lies a locked door, beyond which is a painted wooden figure—a silent companion—that bears a striking resemblance to Elsie herself.

Carolyn's not so different from the other human beings around her. After all, she was a normal American herself once. That was a long time ago, of course - before the time she calls "adoption day", when she and a dozen other children found themselves being raised by a man they learned to call Father.

Ce que les critiques en disent
"A ghost story to chill and thrill...Like Touching the Void rewritten by Jack London, Thin Air is a heart-freezing masterpiece." (Guardian)
"Paver is the mistress of suspense." (The Times)
"A wonderful atmospheric and hugely enjoyable ghost story." (Anthony Horowitz)
Yeah, it was not a fun read. The first half was horrifying, alright, for the reasons listed above, but the last half was honestly kind of boring and a slog to get though. You know the basics of what happens at the end at the beginning, as it is the prologue. The mystery, such as it is, is the how and why, and the how and why offered just didn't grip me at all. You could just about figure it out early on, leaving it all feeling a bit low stakes.
The other thing is, the main characters are unlikable. The villain, of course, although he is almost cartoonishly awful, but the protagonist, too. Maude can be excused for being sort of horrible thoroughly messed up, her childhood was a disaster, but... it was still hard to feel for her or actually care about her wellbeing.
Yeah, I really didn't enjoy this one.
