About The Book

Pierre Combescot est journaliste au Canard Encha�n�. Il est l'auteur de Louis II de Bavi�re (1973), des Fun�railles de la Sardine (Prix M�dicis 1986), des Filles du Calvaire (Prix Goncourt 1991), de La Sainte Famille (1996), du Songe de Pharaon (1998) et Les Petites Mazarines (1999). Ce roman est une saga qui court sur trois g�n�rations, comme pour d�montrer qu'il faut plusieurs vies pour accomplir une destin�e. C'est ce que ressent le h�ros du livre, Kuno von Urslingen-Frundsberg qu'on voit, aux premi�res pages du roman, regagner Schwartzauge, le domaine de ses anc�tres, au coeur du Tyrol. Il a fauss� compagnie � la Panzer-division Frundsberg apr�s avoir tu� deux jeunes caporaux qu'il soup�onnait d'�tre des mouchards de la Gestapo. Le ch�teau en flammes ne l'affecte pas, lui le d�serteur, demi-juif errant dans les d�combres du 3�me Reich: ce qui l'inqui�te, c'est d'affronter la d�b�cle de sa vie. Il n'a pas connu ses parents, Ulrich et Sarah l'italienne, morts dans un accident de voiture, selon son grand-p�re, Tassilo, qui l'�l�ve avec l'aide de Mademoiselle Marthe, la gouvernante fran�aise. Tassilo poss�dait, sous l'�corce d'un salaud r�actionnaire, l'�me d'un d�linquant. Et peut-�tre est-ce � cause de cela qu'il fut fascin� par les Nazis . Et si Tassilo ne ressemble en rien � son p�re, le comte Hynko, viveur raffin� qui pr�f�re Vienne et sa d�cadence � la chasse au sanglier, c'est parce qu'il est le fils du garde-chasse, Udo. Hynko a cependant assez de pouvoir sur Tassilo pour lui imposer un mariage avec Malvina Hirchwitz, fille d'un banquier juif qui r�ve d'entrer dans le Gotha. En r�alit� Hynko, par ce mariage, installe � Schwartzauge, Marie Guimard, c�l�bre ballerine fran�aise, alias Marthe qui porte un enfant de lui. Tassilo, abus�, croit qu'il est le p�re de cet enfant. Apr�s le suicide d'Hynko, Tassilo, pour s'assurer des revenus, organise des chasses o� se pressent grands de ce monde et dignitaires Nazis qui se voient d�j� propri�taires du ch�teau et de sa galerie de portraits. A la fin de la guerre, Kuno retrouve Marthe, vieillie, qui finit de lui apprendre ce qu'il avait en partie devin� elle est sa grand-m�re et ses parents sont vivants. Kuno et Marthe s'enfuient alors jusqu'� Ferrare, rejoindre les parents de Kuno. Mais � leur arriv�e, ils apprennent qu'ils sont morts en d�portation. Marthe ne survit pas � son chagrin. Kuno rejoint ce qui lui reste de famille � Paris. Il se consacre alors � la traduction du livre qui ne l'a jamais quitt� et qui relate la vie de son anc�tre: Vie et Mort de l'illustrissime capitaine Georg von Frundsberg ou l'�cole des Lansquenets. Il fera de ses notes accumul�es en marge de ces pages un roman, pour dire l'histoire d'une �me et de sa d�solation.
