«L'huile sur le feu» is the novel by Hervé Bazin, published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche in paperback (318 pages, in French).
Bazin portrays a disturbed family story through the eyes of a girl: amid silences, gestures and tensions, fire becomes a threatening presence that conditions coexistence. The narrative, almost a thriller, turns the flames into the true protagonist and generates an oppressive atmosphere.
The novel was originally published in 1954; this Le Livre de Poche edition reproduces the complete text.
For readers of contemporary French fiction who value family stories with an oppressive atmosphere and psychological tension.
Hervé Bazin was a French writer, whose best-known novels covered semi-autobiographical topics of teenage rebellion and dysfunctional families.
