Title : Confession in the Hills - Angelo Rinaldi - book

• Summary

During Holy Week, two secular pilgrimages plunge the narrator back into his past, without restraint. In Paris, in front of a vacant lot where a hotel once stood, near the Buttes-Chaumont, this solitary rediscovers "the awakenings in the alcove of Lardennois, the mad laughter of Maleterre, the songs of Teddy, the cackling of Éliane de Lassonne, a sleeping cat, a prunus in the sun and the fleece of a woman's sex like a stuffed object under the hand". The second pilgrimage, more dangerous, and surely guilty, brings him back to his native country. In his luggage, a briefcase with mysterious contents. This bad boy will redeem himself there, however. Not as he had intended for a moment, by carrying the cross of Christ in the Good Friday procession, but by procuring a sinner for his old regimental comrade, Restitude, who looks after goats in the bush, at the end of the world. The renewal of the mystery of the Passion, the intertwining of destinies, a faceless fear, the syncopes and surprises of memory, by the virtue of writing, will never cease to surprise.
