Troyat published more than 100 books, novels and biographies, among them those of Anton Chekhov, Catherine the Great, Rasputin, Ivan the Terrible and Leo Tolstoy.

Equivoque de bout en bout, cette histoire. Imbroglio de 20 annnées, plus sans doute. Ami fidèle, traître, sauveur, magicien, fourbe? Qui est l'ami de Jean, chercheur au CNRS à la renommée montante, amoureux fou de sa femme Madeleine? Bernard , l'ami d'enfance, ne peut pas le duper, si?
Subtile écriture, bien sûr, d'Henri Troyat, qui nous emmène dans une histoire où les époques sont si étroitement vécues qu'ellle semblent contemporaines...

Yaklaşık yirmi yıl önce ilk kez okuduğum ve etkisi ben de geçmeyen kitaplardan. Ölçü ile ilgili bir şeyin gerçek hayatta hiç bir zaman olmadığını yaşamımda tecrübe ettiğim neredeyse her an aklıma gelir ve söylerim "ölçüsüz dostluk yoktur". Dostluk değil her şey olay-insan-doğa! Biyolojik bir tür olarak dünyayı işgal etmiş insan mesela! Düşününce korkunç!
Benim kitabım Cumartesi yayınevinden. İsmi ne kadar güzel bir yayıneviymiş.

C’était sympa à lire mais c’est pas un livre que je retiendrai

Henri Troyat. Un drôle d'écrivain. Je n'ai pas beaucoup lu de ses oeuvres cependant il y a quelque chose de très masculin dans la façon dont il écrit.
En toute honnêteté, la masculinité brute comme ça dans un livre qui est identifié comme étant de la bonne littérature c'est assez agaçant.
Peut-être que c'est ce côté agaçant qui l'a rendu spécial et cher à mes yeux. Effectivement, j'ai beaucoup aimé ce livre, il regorge de sentiments tiraillés et presque incompréhensibles parfois.
Je le conseille évidemment !

Has been very interesting and made me think about trust in others, especially in friends. Are they true or false?
Great book, but I read it in English ;-)

Jean ve Bernard birlikte büyümüş iki eski dost.
Jean ve Madeliene, 15 yıldır mükemmel bir evliliği sürdüren bir çift.
Dostluğun ölçüsü nedir?
Aşkın ölçüsü nedir?
Henri Troyat’ın bu romanı sade bir anlatımı ile bu soruları sorduruyor.
