Generations of men on the Malmaison estate have fathered countless children, both legitimate and not. The women all meet tragic ends or live in the shadows of the estate, and the illegitimate offspring are cared for by nursemaids or sent off to orphanages. Right now the estate is quiet. But the son is returning home, and the father, worried that the land has been less generous with its sumptuous offerings, decides to bring in a whisperer to make the plants and animals grow. But this whisperer awakens the past. The generations of silenced women will begin to make their voices heard, and the violence lurking under the lush perfumes of the forest will make itself known. The hunters will be hunted and the wolves will howl an announcement of a new reign."-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Translation of: La désidérata. 546 $a In English, translated from French. 504 $a Contains bibliographic refrences (pages 173-[174]). 650 0 $a Identity (Psychology) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Identity (Philosophical concept) $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Gothic fiction (Literary genre) 655 7 $a Gothic fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921675 655 7 $a Gothic fiction. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Poitras, Marie HeÌleÌne, 1975- $s Désidérata.
