J'ai été sous l'emprise de ce roman, de bout en bout, même si le ton en est démodé, un brin raciste et machiste. Mais le style, ma psychologie des personnages sont très intéressants. L'on sent aussi l'amour de l'auteur pour la France, même si c'est celle des quartiers chics et des gens fortunés... je me suis laissée emporter par cette longue histoire.

1925. Louis Bromfield attained worldwide acclaim in the 1920s as the author of Early Autumn, his third novel and winner of the 1926 Pulitzer Prize for fiction. At age 29, Bromfield was regarded as one of America's most promising young novelists, compared to the likes of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway. His novels were among the first adapted for feature-length sound films. Possession, as the author describes it, is not a sequel to his The Green Bay Tree, but what might be called panel novels in a screen, which when complete, will consist of at least a half-dozen panels all interrelated and each giving a certain phase of the ungainly, swarming, glittering spectacle of American Life. The novel begins: In the fading October twilight Grandpa Tolliver sat eating an apple and reading The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. The ponderous book (volume III) lay spread open upon his bony knees, for it was too heavy to be supported in any other way, and he read by leaning far over and peering at the pages through steel rimmed spectacles which were not quite clear, as they never were.
