«Attends-moi» is the novel by Françoise Xenakis, published by Grasset in 1993 in paperback (225 pages, in French).
Jeanne Pottier, small and almost mute, attends her own trial as if absent: she has killed her husband, Claude, out of love, to keep a promise. Over four days of hearings, witnesses and lawyers unravel a relationship full of oaths, betrayals and small lies; the proceedings become a drama of jealousy and loss.
«Attends-moi» is Françoise Xenakis's sixteenth novel, the action takes place in France and the cover bears the subtitle «roman».
For readers of French literary fiction interested in courtroom dramas and crimes of passion.
