Mais quand un meurtre est commis dans une riche maison musulmane pratiquant la purdah (s\u00e9paration stricte des femmes et des hommes) elle est la seule \u00e0 pouvoir mener l&rsquo;enqu\u00eate. En effet, les seules survivantes &#8211; et potentielles t\u00e9moins du crime &#8211; sont les trois veuves du riche marchand, vivant recluses dans une partie de la maison interdite aux hommes. Seule Perveen peut comprendre ce qui s\u2019est r\u00e9ellement pass\u00e9 \u00e0 Malabar Hill &#8230;<br>Une enqu\u00eate passionnante, qui nous plonge au c\u0153ur de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 indienne du d\u00e9but du XXe si\u00e8cle et de la place qu&rsquo;y occupent les femmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-green-cyan-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-f23c8b2a16e312961195b63e6e32e882\">Mon ressenti<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Dans <em>Les Veuves de Malabar Hill<\/em>, j&rsquo;ai plong\u00e9 dans l\u2019Inde des ann\u00e9es 1920, o\u00f9 traditions et modernit\u00e9 s\u2019entrechoquent. Un homme laisse derri\u00e8re lui trois veuves recluses, clo\u00eetr\u00e9es dans un zenana, sans droit de parole face \u00e0 un mandataire douteux. C\u2019est l\u00e0 que Perveen Mistry, jeune avocate audacieuse, entre en sc\u00e8ne. \u00c0 travers cette enqu\u00eate, Sujata Massey tisse un roman qui ne se contente pas de raconter une histoire polici\u00e8re. Elle explore aussi les in\u00e9galit\u00e9s criantes d\u2019une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 patriarcale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Perveen est une h\u00e9ro\u00efne inspirante et pionni\u00e8re. Cette jeune femme parsie, form\u00e9e \u00e0 Oxford, ne se contente pas de contourner les obstacles : elle les abat un \u00e0 un. Pourtant, sous son assurance se cache une vuln\u00e9rabilit\u00e9 subtile, que des retours en arri\u00e8re d\u00e9voilent. Ils \u00e9clairent un pass\u00e9 marqu\u00e9 par un mariage toxique et des luttes incessantes contre une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 domin\u00e9e par les hommes. J&rsquo;ai vraiment admir\u00e9 ce personnage qui, gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 une famille moderne, s&rsquo;impose face au patriarcat. Mais j&rsquo;ai aussi \u00e9t\u00e9 indign\u00e9e par le poids des traditions qui p\u00e8sent sur les femmes indiennes. C&rsquo;est pour cette raison que Perveen est fascinante car elle utilise les restrictions impos\u00e9es aux autres pour se frayer un chemin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Sujata Massey ma\u00eetrise l\u2019art de transporter ses lecteurs. Son \u00e9criture, \u00e0 la fois \u00e9rudite et accessible, peint une fresque vivante de Bombay : ses senteurs d\u2019\u00e9pices, ses ruelles grouillantes et ses tensions sociales. Elle alterne habilement entre l\u2019action pr\u00e9sente et les flashbacks, instaurant un suspense qui monte crescendo. Si le style peut para\u00eetre un peu lent au d\u00e9part, la richesse des descriptions et l\u2019intensit\u00e9 des enjeux rattrapent tout. Croyez-moi, une fois pris dans l\u2019intrigue, vous ne l\u00e2cherez plus ce livre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Les Veuves de Malabar Hill<\/strong> est bien plus qu\u2019un roman policier. Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 Sujata Massey, j&rsquo;ai plong\u00e9 dans l\u2019histoire et la culture indiennes. C&rsquo;est un vrai coup de coeur !<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-rating-star\" style=\"text-align:center\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\" itemscope
