註釋In the 1990s, in Mauritius, a woman arrives in the village of Terre Rouge, on the Northwest cost of the island. It is the day of the Ceremony, the day on which she married a man for revenge. It s raining. Reddish mud stains her bridal sari. She thinks she s come, befittingly, to a place of death. But she doesn t know that here, she will receive several gifts: the friendship of Mitsy, the woman with the chipped-glass voice who wears many colours, but for whom a red dress is the sign of her fidelity; a laughter that will free her for the first time from the grief that has filled her all her life; and most of all, Zil, the Creole fisherman whose love gives her back to herself.
