Un animal peut-il se transformer en criminel ? Ou devenir un justicier impitoyable ? Impossible, direz-vous. Et pourtant, quand vous aurez lu ce livre, vous ne regarderez plus jamais les animaux - ni les humains - de la même façon. Baignant dans un climat de cruauté parfois tempéré par une note d'humour, ces treize récits vous feront découvrir un aspect stupéfiant de l'univers de Patricia Highsmith. Ce n'est pas la première fois qu'apparaît dans la littérature le thème des animaux qui se retournent contre l'homme. Mais l'art consommé de Patricia Highsmith, son extraordinaire don d'observation, la vérité des situations et des personnages, l'amour évident que l'auteur éprouve pour les bêtes, toutes ces qualités font de ce recueil un livre où, à chaque page, se lit en filigrane une terrible leçon : souvent, ce n'est pas l'animal qui est le plus bestial. [Payot]
