Nous sommes \u00e0 Lyon, sur les pentes de la Croix-Rousse. Lucie travaille comme strip-teaseuse. Elle rencontre un mauvais gar\u00e7on, Victor, qui la manipule avec une habilet\u00e9 perverse et lorsque deux de ses coll\u00e8gues de travail sont d\u00e9couvertes sauvagement assassin\u00e9es, elle se retrouve \u00e0 mener l’enqu\u00eate\u0085<\/p>\n

Virginie Despentes signe ici son unique polar, et place le lecteur dans la position d’un client de peep-show : les personnages exhibent autre chose que ce qu’ils sont, ne se parlent que s\u00e9par\u00e9s par des vitres, les rideaux tombent toujours trop t\u00f4t, et ce qu’on finit par d\u00e9couvrir en loge n’a rien \u00e0 voir avec ce qui se donne en spectacle\u0085 Quand les poup\u00e9es prennent la parole et se d\u00e9maquillent, elles ne ressemblent pas tout \u00e0 fait \u00e0 ce qu’on croyait savoir d’elles.<\/p>\n

We are in Lyon, on the slopes of Croix-Rousse. Lucie works as a stripper. She meets a bad boy, Victor, who manipulates her with perverse skill and when two of her co-workers are found brutally murdered, she finds herself investigating …<\/p>\n

Virginie Despentes signs her only thriller here, and places the reader in the position of a peep-show client: the characters exhibit something other than what they are, talk to each other only separated by windows, the curtains always fall too far early on, and what we end up discovering in the dressing room has nothing to do with what goes on in a show\u0085 When the dolls speak up and remove their make-up, they don’t quite look like what we thought we knew of them.<\/p><\/div>\n
