Dans un dix-neuvi\u00e8me si\u00e8cle o\u00f9 la magie est l\u2019apanage des aristocrates, l\u2019universit\u00e9 de Willowthorne est l\u2019une des plus s\u00e9lectes et des plus secr\u00e8tes d\u2019Angleterre, lentement envahie par le givre et plong\u00e9e dans un automne \u00e9ternel.
Par une nuit de novembre, \u00e0 Londres, Liam, un b\u00e2tard irlandais des bas-fonds, \u00e9chappe \u00e0 un guet-apens et d\u00e9couvre qu\u2019il est le fils ill\u00e9gitime du duc d\u2019Harbone. Envoy\u00e9 \u00e0 Willowthorne par son p\u00e8re mourant, il devra lutter autant pour s\u2019int\u00e9grer l\u00e0-bas que pour survivre, dans un monde hostile dont il ignore les codes, et o\u00f9 le moindre faux pas peut lui \u00eatre fatal. \u00c9paul\u00e9 par Wendy et Jude, ses amies d\u2019enfance avec qui il forme un trio ins\u00e9parable, il cherchera son chemin parmi les secrets et les fant\u00f4mes, tout en tombant malgr\u00e9 lui sous le charme de l\u2019intrigant Sohan Crow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

#Comment ce livre m’est-il tomb\u00e9 entre les mains ?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Je suis addict aux romans d’Estelle Faye. Alors d\u00e8s que j’apprends qu’elle sort un nouveau livre, je me jette dessus day one<\/em> ! Et Les ombres de Willowthorne<\/em> n’a pas fait exception, pour ne pas mentir. Par contre, j’ai mis un peu de temps avant de le lire… Mais une fois entam\u00e9, difficile de le l\u00e2cher !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

~<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#XIXe<\/sup> si\u00e8cle, amours interdites et souvenirs enfuis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 mes yeux, qui dit Estelle Faye dit histoire qui va m’emporter, quel que soit le monde ou l’\u00e9poque dans laquelle l’autrice nous plonge. Ici, on est emport\u00e9\u00b7es dans une Angleterre du XIXe si\u00e8cle un peu d\u00e9cal\u00e9e, entre les quartiers pauvres de Londres et la myst\u00e9rieuse acad\u00e9mie de Willowthorne o\u00f9 r\u00e8gne un automne \u00e9ternel, dans laquelle on trouve une aile glac\u00e9e du b\u00e2timent et o\u00f9 tous les coups sont permis entre \u00ab\u00a0gentlemen \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J’ignore si c’est une volont\u00e9 d’Estelle Faye, mais elle dresse en effet entre ses pages des portraits tr\u00e8s peu flatteurs des jeunes hommes privil\u00e9gi\u00e9s de cet univers\u2026 et des personnes privil\u00e9gi\u00e9es de mani\u00e8re plus g\u00e9n\u00e9rale. En tout cas, la ressemblance entre eux et leurs alter ego de notre r\u00e9alit\u00e9 est plus que troublante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cela \u00e9tant, la galerie de personnages principaux dessin\u00e9e par l’autrice sont attachants et terriblements humains. Le floril\u00e8ge d’\u00e9motions qui les habitent, leurs r\u00e9actions, leur fa\u00e7on de penser\u00a0: tout cela est vraiment r\u00e9aliste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 travers l’\u00e9poque utilis\u00e9e dans le roman, Estelle Faye invoque des sujets tristement d’actualit\u00e9 : homosexualit\u00e9, lutte des classes, r\u00e9flexions sur la transmission, l’amiti\u00e9 et l’amour\u2026 autant de th\u00e9matiques importantes, amen\u00e9es et trait\u00e9es intelligemment, comme d’habitude lorsque l’autrice prend la plume !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Et l’intrigue alors ? L\u00e0 encore, je reconnais le grand talent d’Estelle Faye et sa ma\u00eetrise de l’intrigue. \u00c0 peine pense-t-on avoir compris certaines choses qu’un nouveau rebondissement inattendu arrive et donne de l’ampleur et de l’\u00e9paisseur \u00e0 l’histoire ! Clairement, je pense que relire Les Ombres de Willowthorne en connaissant les tenants et aboutissants de l’histoire pourrait bien y apporter de nouveaux \u00e9clairages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J’appr\u00e9cie l’id\u00e9e du syst\u00e8me de magie d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 dans ce roman, qu’un don soit octroy\u00e9 \u00e0 certaines personnes et non \u00e0 d’autres. C’est bien amen\u00e9 et plaisant \u00e0 lire, car cela apporte un plus \u00e0 l’histoire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

~<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#En bref<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Encore une lecture passionnante et un coup de coeur pour Les ombres de Willowthorne ! J’appr\u00e9cie r\u00e9ellement la plume de l’autrice et c’est toujours un plaisir de d\u00e9couvrir ses nouveaux textes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
