Through a back door, a woman leaves the Bordeaux courthouse. Thérèse Desqueyroux has just been acquitted in her trial for attempted murder. On the way back to Argelouse, her village, Thérèse wonders and comes back to the events that led her to poison her husband. In this bewitching novel inspired by a news item, François Mauriac brilliantly paints the portrait of a woman locked in her solitude, trapped by the weight of the clan, conventions and rumors and who will try, at all costs, to regain his freedom.
