Title: Like a Brother - Françoise Bourdin - book

RESUME :

A farm lost in the middle of the Jura fir forests, two brothers bound by a tragic destiny. In a closed atmosphere, Like a brother is the story of an exclusive love that the arrival of a woman will turn upside down. A dramatic, dense and profound novel.

In an isolated village in the Jura region, one name is terrifying: Nathan Desroches. A colossus capable of lifting a log with his bare hands, the only one who dares to raise horses in this region with its hostile climate. But if the power of this tireless worker impresses those around him, his house is frightening. In this immense house where he has been raising his two brothers alone since the fire that ravaged their parents' farm, Nathan has established a sinister family atmosphere.

This authoritarian man reserves all his hatred for one of them, whom he never lets out. It is Justin, the younger brother, simple-minded, who is behind the disaster that left them orphans. To the other, Joachim, a beautiful and fragile child, Nathan gives all his love. A love as inhuman as he is, immense, exclusive, and demanding. To the point that the two brothers never leave each other. No girl has been able to separate them, not even Nathan's wife, who must step aside...

Until the day Joachim falls in love. Tragedy, then, is inevitable.

"This intimate book evokes the tragic family stories of a Bazin man. A book where every word counts." The Parisian
