The Book Thief Part 1 Summary

Après avoir annulé pour la 88 fois notre mariage, j'ai appelé mon associé pour lui annoncer ma décision : « Je me porte volontaire pour le développement du marché en Hériville. » Sa voix stupéfaite a résonné à l'autre bout du fil : « Tu es sûre ? Ce projet nécessite un engagement de dix ans sur place. Tu viens de te marier, ton mari est d'accord pour une séparation immédiate ? Et tes parents ? Ton plus grand rêve n'était-il pas de rester à leurs côtés ? » Fixant l'église vide, j'ai ri amèrement : « Le mariage a encore été annulé, de quel mari parles-tu ? Quant à mes parents, Claudine leur suffit. » Après un silence, l'homme a fini par acquiescer : « D'accord. Prépare-toi, tu pourras partir demain. » Raccrochant, j'ai laissé mes larmes couler sur ma robe de mariée. Oui, en ce jour qui aurait dû être le plus heureux de ma vie, Claudine Sadoul, ma sœur adoptive, avait encore tenté de se suicider à cause de sa dépression. Et une fois de plus, Gauthier Lortis, mon futur époux, avait annulé notre mariage. Je l'avais regardé, épuisée et désespérée : « C'est la 88 fois. » Rempli de remords, il avait baissé la tête pour me cajoler : « Accorde-moi encore un peu de temps, Léone. Tu sais bien que depuis cet accident, Claudine est si fragile… J'ai tellement peur qu'elle fasse une bêtise. Cette fois, je vais avoir une conversation claire avec elle. Ensuite, nous officialiserons notre union, immédiatement. » Mes parents, indifférents à mon chagrin, avaient insisté : « Léone, laisse Gauthier partir. Si Claudine n'avait pas été kidnappée à cause de toi, elle ne souffrirait pas de dépression. L'empêcher d'aller la sauver, c'est vouloir sa mort ? » « Comment peux-tu être aussi égoïste ? Ton mariage est-il plus important que sa vie ? » Ces reproches, je les avais entendus maintes fois. Auparavant, je m'étais défendue. Mais cette fois, j'étais restée silencieuse. Puisque mon fiancé et mes parents me rejetaient et ne me faisaient pas confiance, je disparaîtrais de leur monde !
