From "a novelist at the height of his powers," a dramatic and jubilant dive into France in the "glory days" of the 1950s, through the lens of one ambitious, troubled, and utterly compelling family (La Croix).
It is 1952 and the grown children of Louis Pelletier, a prominent businessman with a dark past, have settled in Paris. Jean, the menacing eldest brother, hides a terrible secret and is trapped in a stifling marriage, his days lightened only by his love for his three-year-old daughter. François, an up-and-coming reporter, is caught up in a volatile love affair. And Hélène, their younger sister, strives to make her own way as a journalist, but as a woman in a man’s world, she faces extraordinary challenges as she fights to expose a vast industrial scandal.
Dark and compelling, witty and vivid, and filled with surprising reversals and cliffhangers, Silence and Fury is the story of one remarkable family against the backdrop of France during one of its most thrilling and volatile periods.
