Description
In 1926, Joe Trace murders his young mistress Dorcus. In the grip of despair and jealousy, Violette, Joe's wife, also rushes to the remains of her rival, with the aim of killing her a second time. Upset by the violence and horror of their actions, the two spouses will mercilessly search their shared past to understand their devastated present. Nourished by music that embodies the freedom of a new generation of black Americans in Harlem in the 1920s, this novel is not only built to the rhythm of a piece of jazz. It becomes, over the course of the narrative, Jazz. A magnificent novel, where the power of love is affirmed on each page, which triumphs over age, the vulnerability of the flesh and, finally, despair.
