Synopsis "L'Empreinte du dieu: Prix Goncourt 1936 (in French)"

Lauréat du Prix Goncourt pour cet ouvrage émouvant, Maxence Van der Meersch conte l'histoire tragique de Karelina, timide paysanne au joli visage. Mariée de force à un colosse brutal, elle doit subir une vie faite d'expédients et les humiliations de son mari. Quand son bourreau est mis sous les verrous, elle s'enfuit. Elle trouve refuge chez son oncle Domitien, écrivain célèbre, dont l'épouse, Wilfrida, reçoit avec joie la jeune femme, qu'elle considère bientôt comme sa propre fille. Les deux femmes ignorent alors qu'elles viennent de sceller leurs destins...

Maxence Van der Meersch (Roubaix, 1907 – Le Touquet, 1951) was a French writer whose work falls within social realism and worker Catholicism. Trained as a lawyer, he soon left his professional practice to dedicate himself to literature, sensitively portraying the life of the working classes in northern France. His conversion to Catholicism in 1936 deeply marked his literary output.

Among his most notable works are The House of the Dunes (1932), When the Sirens Fall Silent (1933), The Mark of God (1936), which earned him the Goncourt Prize, and Bodies and Souls (1943), awarded the Grand Prize of the French Academy. His trilogy The Poor Daughter (1934–1955) and Invasion 14 (1935) are also representative of his committed and humanist style.
