Samuel ne sait rien de la femme qu'il va épouser. Depuis des années, son père n'a ménagé aucun effort pour rendre son fils attirant, pour l'engraisser comme une volaille en vue du grand jour. La famille se réjouit, Madame est riche et les problèmes financiers se régleront bientôt. Samuel doit simplement se donner du temps pour l'aimer. Sur l'île où habite Samuel, l'homme obéit à sa femme. Gare à celui qui tente de s'émanciper, car des vigiles armés surveillent les rues. Marié, il devra satisfaire les désirs de Madame et se taire. Que peut un homme facilement remplaçable dans un monde où les femmes dominent toutes les sphères de la société ? Avec toute la finesse et l'audace qui caractérisent son oeuvre, l'auteur de L'orangeraie nous livre une fable romanesque, miroir déformant qui ébranle nos préjugés et nos aveuglements volontaires, traversée par la question brûlante de la domination des sexes

Der Protagonist des Romans, Edgar, wird unweit des Grabes seiner Mutter Zeuge eines Verbrechens. Vier „apokalyptische Reiter“ schänden auf einem Friedhof eine junge Frau. Der leidende Mensch, der sich später als ein Mann entpuppt und den Edgar fortan Jean nennt, wird von ihm gesund gepflegt und schließlich in einer beinahe bewusstlosen, orgienhaften Obsession gefüttert, gemästet und in seiner Wohnung festgehalten. In diesem außergewöhnlichen, düsteren Roman erleben wir Leser eine christliche Verehrung der ungewöhnlichsten Art. Der Roman ist auch eine Auseinandersetzung mit der Figur des Erlösers und dem Katholizismus, der Québec lange Zeit stark geprägt hat. Eine in Teilen uns schaudern machende Lektüre, die einige Kritiker an Erzählungen von Edgar Allen Poe oder auch an Franz Kafka erinnern wollte.
