From her deathbed, Mathilda tells the story she has carried in silence—one marked by love, loss, and a devastating truth that reshaped her life forever. Orphaned young and raised in emotional distance, she is reunited with her father only to face a revelation so profound it fractures their bond and drives him toward irreversible despair.

This edition of Shelley's second novel, transcribed and introduced by Deanna Koretsky, explores the work both as a complex portrayal of taboo desires and as an intergenerational story of reckoning with the horrors of racism and patriarchy.

On croyait fêter Noël. On a réveillé les morts. Dans une vieille maison familiale, on met la table. On sourit, on trinque, on joue le jeu. Mais sous les rires… le silence s’épaissit.

Mathilde et ses mitaines est un polar étonnant de modernisme écrit au début du XXème siècle. Il met en scène Mathilde, une forte femme capable de démêler avec brio une enquête policière et de la mener à son terme, pistolet au poing.

It tells the story of a young woman whose mother died in her childbirth - just as Shelly's own mother died after hers - and whose relationship with her bereaved father becomes sexually charged as he conflates her with his lost wife, while she becomes involved with a handsome poet.

Writing to her only friend from her deathbed, Mathilda finally reveals the history that led to her isolated life of despairing melancholy. Of her mother dying in childbirth, her father's confession of his incestuous desire and subsequent suicide, and her relationship with a handsome young poet that fails to reverse Matilda's emotional withdrawal or prevent her lonely death. The haunting and relentlessly self-examining voice of Mary Shelley's protagonist is a bare narrative of trauma of a brave woman's failed search for love, atonement, and redemption.
