I, Tituba, Black Witch of Salem by Maryse Condé

chloette's review against another edition

dark informative medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

3.5

une lecture mitigée, j’ai aimé le fait d’avoir un livre historique sur une figure que je ne connaissais pas du tout (une esclave accusée de sorcellerie lors des procès à Salem au 17e)
par contre, pourquoi est ce qu’elle a autant besoin d’avoir des hommes dans sa vie? elle retombe constamment dans une relation quand bien même rien ne l’y pousse (mention spéciale à son fils-amant de la fin, c’était le coup de grâce pour moi)
