About this listen

Revenge: The act of taking revenge; moral compensation for the offended by punishing the offender. To take revenge for an affront.

Revenge — and its consequences - have inspired writers for millennia. From Shakespeare (Hamlet) to Dennis Lehane (Mystic River) to Patrick Senécal (Les 7 jours du Talion), revenge has been explored in all its forms. The theme of restorative punishment abounds in cinema, serving as a catharsis for our own desire to strike back (Taken, The Equalizer, John Wick, etc.).

The desire for blind retaliation — and the violence it inspires - has also been brilliantly portrayed in popular literature and film (The 7 Days of Retaliation / Mystic River).

In this first mini-collection, I explore three facets of revenge in three separate stories: a gory thriller, a fantastic tale and a psychological thriller. Three hard-hitting, uncompromising stories already published in my collection Quatre Saisons de nouvelles Tome 1.

Three stories that explore and scratch at the shadows that inhabit us all to varying degrees. I hope you enjoy them.

Happy listening! Are you ready to dive in?
