About this listen

Juillet 2018, soir de la finale de la Coupe du monde de football. Un jeune homme se cache dans les WC d'un centre commercial, les mains couvertes de sang. Il se fait appeler Tom. Ce fils unique de vingt-neuf ans, de son vrai nom Romain Marais, est un étudiant égaré et érotomane, aux prises avec d'étranges désirs de dévoration.
Actrice noire en pleine ascension, Lame se livre à des séances d'hypnose pour soigner un eczéma qui la ronge. Plongée dans un état second, elle revisite son enfance en banlieue, ses premiers émois, ses rêves de cinéma, et tente d'échapper au sentiment de menace qui la hante.
L'un est un monstre en puissance, l'autre une comédienne en devenir dont le corps désiré, célébré, lui échappe et la met en danger…

Avec Avale, Séphora Pondi entre en littérature comme elle entre sur scène : flamboyante. Un premier roman à l'écriture vibrante et sensuelle, qui ne laisse pas indemne.

The characters and the author reading for us, really enjoyed her reading. Fast book to listen when driving, had to finish it in a day. So modern and great vocabulary. Some small inconsistencies which didn’t distract from the story. Can’t wait to read her next novel.

Fresh and contemporary portrait of today’s society. I enjoyed the story.
