Leggilo a tuo rischio e pericolo, evitalo a tuo rischio e pericolo' Sunday Times Il capitano Lannec è finalmente riuscito ad acquistare la sua nave con l'aiuto finanziario dei suoi suoceri, i Pitard, e non glielo hanno mai fatto dimenticare. Quando la sua capricciosa moglie Mathilde insiste per accompagnarlo nel primo viaggio della nave, Lannec diventa sempre più innervosito dalla sua presenza, soprattutto quando riceve una nota anonima che dice che non tornerà in porto. Mentre incontrano una tempesta nell'Atlantico, gelosia, dispetto, snobismo e sospetto si agitano negli spazi soffocanti e angusti della barca. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1935, I Pitard è stato uno dei primi romanzi che Simenon scrisse quando accantonò la sua famosa serie di Maigret per intraprendere una nuova direzione e farsi un nome come scrittore letterario. Questa avvincente evocazione della vita in mare ruota attorno alla classe sociale e al teso disfacimento delle relazioni, temi potenti su cui Simenon tornerà nel corso della sua carriera di scrittore.

When his temperamental wife Mathilde insists on coming along on the ship's first voyage, Lannec becomes increasingly unnerved by her presence, especially when he receives an anonymous note saying he won't make it back to port. As they hit a storm in the Atlantic, jealousy, spite, snobbery and suspicion are churned up in the boat's stiflingly close quarters.First published in 1935, The Pitards was one of the first novels Simenon wrote when he shelved his famous Maigret series in order to strike out in a new direction and make a name for himself as a literary writer.
