"God, conquered, will become Satan; Satan, conquering, will become God. May the fates spare me this terrible lot; I love the Hell which formed my genius. I love the Earth where I have done some good, if it be possible to do any good in this fearful world where beings live but by rapine. Now, thanks to us, the god of old is dispossessed of his terrestrial empire, and every thinking being on this globe disdains him or knows him not.

Thaïs. La cortesana de Alejandría. ANATOLE FRANCE Francia 1844 - 1924

Dans ce volume, se trouve "Crainquebille", sorte de court roman qui donne son titre à l'ensemble. En ce temps déjà lointain (fin du XIXème), Paris était encore sillonné et animé par des marchands de quatre saisons poussant une petite charrette chargée de légumes ou de fruits. Mais une circulation de plus en plus dense les a chassés ainsi que l'obligation de la rendre fluide à n'importe quel prix. C'est à cette terrible réalité que le pauvre marchand Crainquebille doit sa terrible mésaventure, ses démêlés avec la police puis avec la justice. Et ce qui est tragique dans ce premier cas devient troublant dans celui de "Monsieur Thomas" et carrément comique quand il s'agit de l'existence du jardinier "Putois". Autant de personnages redoutables ou bizarres. C'est sans doute ce que pense "Riquet" le chien de Monsieur Bergeret que l'on retrouve dans "La cravate" aussi bien que dans "Emile". On bascule carrément dans l'étrange dans l'histoire d'"Adrienne Buquet" ou dans celle de "La Pierre Gravée". Un recueil de courts romans, de nouvelles et de petites histoires basées sur des observations aiguës de la condition humaine ou de la réalité sociale, marquées au coin de l'humour, de l'étrange, pleines d'inventions plaisantes et de propos moqueurs. Au total, seize pépites magistralement ciselées par l'immense auteur que fut Anatole France, magnifique styliste et ardent défenseur des Droits de l'Homme.

Histoire de l'ascension infernale d'Évariste Gamelin, jeune peintre parisien, engagé dans la section de son quartier du Pont-Neuf, Les dieux ont soif décrit les années noires de la Terreur à Paris, entre les ans II et III. Farouchement jacobin, fidèle entre les fidèles de Marat et Robespierre, Évariste Gamelin finira par être nommé juré au tribunal révolutionnaire.La longue et implacable succession des procès quotidiens de plus en plus expéditifs (à partir de la loi de prairial en particulier) entraîne cet idéaliste dans une folie qui le coupera de ses proches et précipitera sa propre chute à la suite de son idole Robespierre, au lendemain du 9 Thermidor. Son amour avec Élodie, la fille de Jean Blaise, son marchand d'estampes, accentuera l'aspect paradoxal de la montée d'une cruauté inspirée par des idées politiques a priori généreuses chez ce garçon médiocre que tout dispose à la gentillesse sinon à la faiblesse.Justifiant cette danse de la guillotine par le combat contre le complot visant à réduire à néant les acquis de la Révolution, au milieu de la tourmente révolutionnaire qui traverse Paris, toujours avide de justice, Gamelin finit par trahir ses propres principes en votant la mort du ci-devant Jacques Maubel, qu'il prend pour son rival. Élodie, qui avant Évariste, a cédé à un petit clerc de procureur très joli garçon (devenu le dragon Henry, révolutionnaire par opportunisme, autre personnage du roman), lui a raconté qu'elle avait été séduite par un jeune aristocrate, et sur de simples présomptions, Gamelin se convainc qu'il s'agit de Maubel.

On a émis sur le personnage fameux, vulgairement nommé la Barbe-Bleue, les opinions les plus diverses, les plus étranges et les plus fausses. Il n'en est peut-être pas de moins soutenable que celle qui fait de ce gentilhomme une personnification du soleil. C'est à quoi l'on s'est appliqué, il y a une quarantaine d'années dans une certaine école de mythologie comparée.

Fanny started off early one morning, like little Red Riding Hood, to visit her grandmother, who lives quite at the other end of the village. But Fanny did not stop like Red Riding Hood to pick hazel nuts. She went straight on her way, and did not see any wolf.Even when quite a long way off, she could see her grandmother seated on her stone doorstep, the dear grandmother who smiled with her toothless mouth and opened her old arms thin as grape vines to welcome her little granddaughter. Fanny's heart was filled with delight at the prospect of spending a whole day at her grandmother's. And her grandmother, having no longer any cares or tasks, but living like a cricket near the fire, is happy too to see the little daughter of her son, a sweet reminder of her youth.
