✦ Synopsis


Le temps de ce livre se situe dans quelques années, lorsque les désordres climatiques s'aggraveront, lorsque le niveau des océans se fera menaçant. La mer monte, grignote lentement certaine partie de la côte normande, engloutira bientôt les quelques villas perchées sur la falaise. Ce jour-là, la seule survivante des trois familles de vacanciers qui y ont partagé tous leurs étés veut voir la dernière vague. Revenue sur cette plage clandestinement, elle s'accroche à sa maison, à ses souvenirs. À ceux qui sont morts, elle prête sa voix, fait revivre les derniers instants de chacun. Leurs destins se croisent, rencontrent le sien, sa propre histoire affleure au fil des confidences qu'elle livre à une interlocutrice silencieuse. Pour différer la disparition de ce décor familier et la sienne propre, elle fait de sa mémoire une digue, un barrage : que restera-t-il de ces résidences secondaires, des mesquineries, du goût des crevettes grises, des préjugés bourgeois, des bains de minuit, des vies réelles et imaginaires, à la toute fin?
