About the Book

Extrait: I L'hotel du B uf couronne etait en revolution; le 17, ou plutot, pour parler une langue moins abregee, le voyageur qui occupait la chambre n 17 venait d'etre rapporte dans un etat desespere. Sorti le matin, gai et dispos en apparence, on l'avait vu revenir deux heures apres, etendu sans connaissance sur un brancard, et il avait fallu le porter jusqu'a sa chambre: dans l'escalier, sa tete ballante avait deux fois heurte les marches de pierre sans qu'il poussat un cri ou fit un mouvement. Comme le brancard s'etait arrete devant la porte precisement a l'heure du dejeuner de la table d'hote, cela avait produit une certaine emotion parmi les convives. On avait quitte la table pele-mele, et pendant que, la serviette a la main, la bouche pleine, on se pressait aux fenetres, un voyageur de commerce s'etait detache du groupe pour aller examiner les mains du moribond, parce que, si les pouces etaient tournes en dehors, c'etait la comedie d'un pauvre diable, tandis que, s'ils etaient tournes en dedans, c'etait l'attaque d'epilepsie d'un honnete homme. Les pouces n'etant tournes ni en dehors ni en dedans, par cette raison que les mains n'etaient point fermees, on avait abandonne l'hypothese de l'epilepsie pour celle de l'apoplexie, et, discutant confusement, on etait revenu a la table, ou deux Anglaises, apres avoir profite du brouhaha pour faire main-basse sur tous les ufs a la coque, s'occupaient tranquillement a les casser et a les brouiller dans leurs verres..... Hector-Henri Malot dit Hector Malot, ne le 20 mai 1830 a La Bouille, non loin de Rouen, et decede le 18 juillet 1907 a Fontenay-sous-Bois, est un romancier francais. Debuts litteraires et vie familiale En 1853, il s'installe a Paris, et tente en vain de faire representer une premiere piece. Pour assurer sa subsistance, il ecrit quelques articles. Il se retire chez ses parents pour ecrire sa premiere trilogie Les Victimes d'amour dont le premier volume parait en 1859. En 1864, il fait construire a Fontenay-sous-Bois un chalet qu'il habite jusqu'a sa mort. Il en choisit l'emplacement non loin de la gare. Ainsi peut-il se rendre regulierement a Paris et gagner les gares voisines pour des promenades pedestres qu'il affectionne. En 1867, il epouse Anna Daries. Leur fille, Lucie, nait en 1868. Anna decede en 1880. Hector Malot se remarie l'annee suivante avec Marthe Oudinot de La Faverie (1850-1920), jeune femme alors agee de 31 ans, avec laquelle il accomplit de nombreux voyages. En 1893, un an apres l'ecriture de En famille, nait sa petite-fille Perrine (son prenom est celui de l'heroine du roman). Il se montre un grand-pere attentif et aimant, curieux de noter l'evolution qu'il observe chez l'enfant. De1857a1859, il habite quelque temps avec ses parents, a Moisselles dans le Val-d'Oise, dans la belle propriete de son demi-frere Monsieur Thomas, ou il prepare son roman Les Amants. Malot est journaliste a L'Opinion nationale et son premier livre, Les Amants, parait en1859et connait un grand succes."
