«Les femmes du braconnier» is a novel by Claude Pujade-Renaud, published in 2010 by Actes Sud in paperback (349 pages, in French).
The novel interweaves the story of Sylvia Plath, Ted Hughes and Assia Wevill through multiple voices: Sylvia's mother, the rival, the sister, the psychiatrist, friends and neighbors. With verses, fears and memories, it builds a loving and tragic narrative that, without renouncing documented facts, goes beyond biography.
For readers interested in the figure of Sylvia Plath, in Ted Hughes and in literary recreations of writers' lives with a documentary basis.
Claude Pujade-Renaud was a French writer, whose first novel Le Ventriloque appeared in 1978. She subsequently published over twenty novels, short-story and poetry collections, as well as combined creative works with long-time partner Daniel Zimmermann. She won the prix Goncourt des lycéens in 1994 for Belle mère, her novel on being a stepmother, and was a recipient of the French Writer's Guild Prize for her life's work.
