Résumé
"The Dream Woman" is a novella by Wilkie Collins, telling the story of Francis Raven, a young man who dreams that a strange woman is trying to kill him. Eventually, he marries a woman who looks exactly like the one from his dream. This novella is a cosy mystery that leaves readers with more questions than answers. A lot of guesswork is needed, and the reader is often disturbed by the occurrences, not knowing what or how it came to this. The femme fatale mystery, as well as the supernatural and dream-like episodes turn the story into a compelling read that fans of supernatural crime and mystery fiction will love.B. J.

William Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) était l'ami et le rival de Dickens. Borges a chanté ses louanges. Inventeur, d'une certaine manière, du thriller moderne, il n'a pas son pareil pour tisser une intrigue diabolique et dépeindre sous un jour impitoyable la haute société victorienne et l'hypocrisie de ses prétendues bonnes mœurs. Publié en 1857, deux ans avant La Dame en blanc, Secret absolu est aujourd'hui considéré comme l'un des romans les plus sombres de Collins.
