Je viens du lancement du dernier roman noir d’André Marois: Sa propre mort, où j’ai attrapé un bout d’entrevue improvisée juste avant que la foule n’arrive: #

#

I just came back from the launch party for Sa propre mort (“Her Own Death“), a novel by my friend André Marois. André is a great writer of noir fiction. I know no other writer whose characters kill with such spontaneous ease. In this (short-short) vidéo, several voices ask him if it’s a horror story or a vengeance one. #

His answer: “Horror? No, I don’t write horror, I tell noir stories.” #

I ask him: “But on your promo video, it seems to be dark, dark, dark.” #

André: “It’s a vengeance. There is killing, there is killing, there must be killing.” #

Here is the book cover: #
