Editor's Note:
Dans La Piscine, la fille du directeur d’un orphelinat partage la vie quotidienne de tous les enfants de l’institution, exactement comme si elle non plus n’avait pas de famille. Deux plaisirs compensent cette situation : regarder un adolescent s’exercer à plonger dans la piscine, et tourmenter une petite fille de cinq ans dont les pleurs lui procurent un apaisement inégalable… A un cousin éloigné qui sollicite son aide pour trouver un logement, une jeune femme recommande le foyer où elle vivait lorsqu’elle était étudiante. Le directeur, personnage singulier qui a, dans un accident, perdu tous ses membres sauf une jambe, leur fait savoir que l’établissement est désormais à peu près désert et qu’un processus de dégradation est à l’œuvre… Tel est le thème des Abeilles.Dans le livre éponyme, la narratrice observe la grossesse de sa sœur d’un œil scrutateur et cruellement objectif, qui relève avec plaisir les désagréments et petits tracas de sa vie quotidienne. Le principal souci de ces mois de grossesse est la nourriture…Ces trois textes ont en commun leur simplicité et leur concision exemplaires. On y retrouve également des personnages à la naïveté cruelle, à la perversité troublante, et des situations à l’étrangeté menaçante. Yôko Ogawa manipule merveilleusement l’art de la description, qui s’arrête sur les détails pour révéler des émotions profondément enfouies dans l’inconscient des êtres.(présentation éditeur)
