"Sarah Maza has written a vivid, gripping and clear-eyed account of the celebrated Violette Nozière case, which captivated French society in the 1930s. A bold and imaginative story, Violette Nozière opens an unexpected and revealing window onto interwar Parisian life." — Colin Jones, author of Paris: Biography of a City “Sarah Maza's absorbing new book on Violette Nozière--flapper, fantasist, and perpetrator of one of the most sordid and sensational French homicides of the 1930s—is a scholarly 'true crime' tale of the most intelligent sort. Why might a seemingly respectable little mademoiselle from a 'nice' bourgeois family want to poison her maman et papa at the breakfast table? Alongside her riveting account of the crime and its aftermath, Maza investigates the various pathologies—familial, social, economic, cultural, psychosexual—that may have figured in the mayhem. (At her trial Nozière claimed, among other things, that her father had sexually abused her for years.) The result is both a fascinating case history—Greek tragedy rewritten as seedy policier—and a chilling glimpse into the less salubrious aspects of French lower middle-class life between the wars.” — Terry Castle, author of The Professor "One of those rare and sophisticated works that tells a gripping story while evoking a complex historical period. There exist very few cultural histories of the interwar years."—Carolyn Dean, author of Aversion and Erasure: The Fate of the Victim after the Holocaust “Sarah Maza's book tells an arresting story that deftly combines conventional social history with a subtle analysis of gender and culture. Using all the arts of the best storytellers, she is careful not to give too much away, and it is only with time and a remarkable conclusion that we realize that Violette Nozière is no ordinary tale.” — Ruth Harris, author of Dreyfus: Politics, Emotion, and the Scandal of the Century

On an August evening in 1933, in a quiet, working-class neighborhood in Paris, eighteen-year-old Violette Nozière gave her mother and father glasses of barbiturate-laced "medication," which she told them had been prescribed by the family doctor; one of her parents died, the other barely survived. Almost immediately Violette’s act of "double parricide" became the most sensational private crime of the French interwar era—discussed and debated so passionately that it was compared to the Dreyfus Affair. Why would the beloved only child of respectable parents do such a thing? To understand the motives behind this crime and the reasons for its extraordinary impact, Sarah Maza delves into the abundant case records, re-creating the daily existence of Parisians whose lives were touched by the affair. This compulsively readable book brilliantly evokes the texture of life in 1930s Paris. It also makes an important argument about French society and culture while proposing new understandings of crime and social class in the years before World War II.

22 janvier 1915 : dans l’église de la petite commune de Neuvy-sur-Loire, en Bourgogne, on baptise un bébé de sexe féminin âgé de huit jours. Elle s’appelle Violette. Ses parents, Germaine et Baptiste Nozière, sont comblés par l’arrivée de cette enfant. Elle restera leur fille unique, qu’ils chériront jusqu’à la fin. Mais on assiste, au fil des pages, à la lente dégradation de la moralité et de l’état d’esprit d’une enfant, puis d’une adolescente, qui ne supporte plus le décalage entre son milieu familial modeste, et la vie insouciante de la jeunesse dorée qu’elle retrouve au Quartier latin. Voleuse, menteuse, mythomane, libertine, calculatrice, Violette va mener ses parents par le bout du nez jusqu’à la mort, le 21 août 1933. Suivent son arrestation, le procès, la condamnation à mort, la grâce du président de la République, la réduction de sa peine aux travaux forcés à perpétuité, la reconstruction de sa vie, sa réhabilitation et ses dernières années, pendant lesquelles elle devra lutter contre la maladie.

Violette Nozière, jeune parricide des années 1930, enflamma des années durant la rubrique des faits divers et l'imaginaire des écrivains. C'est une de ces garçonnes aux cheveux courts passant ses jours et ses nuits à Saint-Germain-des-Prés, dans la fréquentation d'amis douteux. Lorsqu'elle est arrêtée, en août 1933, pour l'empoisonnement de son père, elle a tout juste 17 ans et déchaîne les passions. On la hait, on la célèbre. Beauté convulsive des Surréalistes, sorcière, mythomane, monstre en jupon... Dans ce roman inventif et impertinent, Raphaëlle Riol revisite le mythe en convoquant le personnage à sa table d'écrivain. Ultra Violette fait s'entrechoquer face A, l'histoire vraie et face B, les hypothèses imaginaires. Portrait trouble d'une jeune fille et de son époque.

Corpses mark surrealism's path through the twentieth century, providing material evidence of the violence in modern life. Though the shifting group of poets, artists, and critics who made up the surrealist movement were witness to total war, revolutionary violence, and mass killing, it was the tawdry reality of everyday crime that fascinated them. Jonathan P. Eburne shows us how this focus reveals the relationship between aesthetics and politics in the thought and artwork of the surrealists and establishes their movement as a useful platform for addressing the contemporary problem of violence, both individual and political. In a book strikingly illustrated with surrealist artworks and their sometimes gruesome source material, Eburne addresses key individual works by both better-known surrealist writers and artists (including André Breton, Louis Aragon, Aimé Césaire, Jacques Lacan, Georges Bataille, Max Ernst, and Salvador Dalí) and lesser-known figures (such as René Crevel, Simone Breton, Leonora Carrington, Benjamin Péret, and Jules Monnerot). For Eburne "the art of crime" denotes an array of cultural production including sensationalist journalism, detective mysteries, police blotters, crime scene photos, and documents of medical and legal opinion as well as the roman noir, in particular the first crime novel of the American Chester Himes. The surrealists collected and scrutinized such materials, using them as the inspiration for the outpouring of political tracts, pamphlets, and artworks through which they sought to expose the forms of violence perpetrated in the name of the state, its courts, and respectable bourgeois values. Concluding with the surrealists' quarrel with the existentialists and their bitter condemnation of France's anticolonial wars, Surrealism and the Art of Crime establishes surrealism as a vital element in the intellectual, political, and artistic history of the twentieth century.
