«Séparation de cœur» is Joanna Trollope's realist novel, published by Calmann-Lévy in 1999 in paperback (302 pages, in French).
After forty years of marriage, Guy Stockdale announces his intention to divorce in order to marry Merrion, his much younger lover. The decision destabilizes the family and forces each of its members to question their own lives. The novel examines with realism the consequences of that choice and the tensions of a family chronicle.
The French version corresponds to the original novel «Marrying the Mistress», published in 2000; the translation is by Dominique Peters.
A read for those who enjoy realist novels and family chronicles about relationships and personal decisions.
Joanna Trollope was an English writer. She also wrote under the pseudonym of Caroline Harvey. Her novel Parson Harding's Daughter won the 1980 Romantic Novel of the Year Award by the Romantic Novelists' Association.
