Three Strong Women

In this new novel, the first by a black woman ever to win the coveted Prix Goncourt, Marie NDiaye creates a luminous narrative triptych as harrowing as it is beautiful.

[ 5.0 stars ] "Marie NDiaye's THREE STRONG WOMEN, ("Trois femmes puissantes") is a complex and thought provoking book. It comprises three 'novellas', for lack of a better term, three fictional accounts that each explore one individual's life at a crucial moment in time.

[ 1.0 stars ] "Book club hated it, too. Eight of us. Tedious reading. Stilted language. Was that the translation? Too much repetition. Since the author was so particular and repetitive about many details, why wasn't she particular about the overall meaning of the book? Nora was one strong woman. Didn't like the dismal outlook of Rudy Declos. Fanta, his wife, was one strong woman. Part 3 was the best stor ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 4.0 stars ] "I can easily make the case against "Three Strong Women". I can point to the strange, breathless writing style Marie Ndiaye opts for, or to the way this isn't really a novel, or the thematic dissonance that makes little sense until the very end. I can point to the moments in the story at which I stalled, or to the characters I didn't like, or to the passages that made my blood boil. Instead ..." Courtesy by Amazon
