Rag Doll Meaning

My best friend and I had been abducted by the Pendragon brothers—a duo consisting of a religious CEO and a top-billed movie star. We became their secret lovers against our will. "I'm pregnant, Lilith," my best friend said, tears glistening in her eyes. "Me too, Lindsay," I replied softly, caressing my belly. "But I won't go through with it." The brothers heard us. Their control tightened. They watched us during mealtimes, while we slept, and even during our bathroom breaks. We could not endure it any longer, so we fought back. In their anger, the brothers kept mistresses who resembled us. We thought we were free until one day, they found us. They called us homewreckers and hurled insults at us. They broke into our house, scarred our faces, broke our legs, and kicked us until we miscarried. It did not matter how much we tried to explain ourselves. They removed our clothes and paraded us in the street. Finally, the Pendragons arrived. They raised their marriage certificates and declared, "Lilith and Lindsay are our wives!"

Corine vit entourée de spirales : sur les murs de son atelier, dans ses carnets, sur les tissus qu’elle manipule. Ces formes, d’abord abstraites, deviennent des indices. À la mort de son père, elle découvre un carnet scellé, une spirale dessinée, une phrase énigmatique. Ce fil la mène vers une boîte oubliée, une carte annotée, un jardin qui n’existe que dans les souvenirs fragmentés d’un homme qu’elle croyait connaître. À travers une narration éclatée, faite de fragments et de silences, Corine remonte le fil d’une mémoire familiale trouée. Elle interroge les gestes, les absences, les objets, et les voix qui résonnent sous sa peau. Dans cette quête, elle vit aussi l’amour — discret, profond, tissé entre les lignes — qui l’aide à entendre ce que son corps n’a jamais su dire. Corine, fragments d’une obsession est un roman psychologique et intimiste, une traversée intérieure où chaque trace devient une voix, chaque spirale une carte, et chaque silence une réponse possible.
