Title : The Madness of Bassompierre - Jean-Paul Malaval - Book

Summary :

Early 1960s, Périgord. Marceau Bassompierre is the founder and president and director of Périgord, a major walnut producers' cooperative. Confident in his power, he is not overly concerned when he learns of the circulation of anonymous letters accusing him of being responsible for the death of his wife, Juliette, who had been the victim of a road accident a few years earlier. Those around him are wondering, especially his youngest son, Jonas, who suffers from always being considered an "extra."
The crow persists, the slander spreads, to the point of seriously jeopardizing the credibility of the powerful man. Only Agathe, Marceau's sister-in-law, could testify to the truth. However, since the death of her sister, from whom she was inseparable, the latter has been living prostrate, demented, in one of the rooms of the family home.
