    Je ne me suis jamais vraiment intéressée à la psychogénéalogie ni aux phénomènes de répétition transmis d'une génération à une autre qui passionnent certains de mes amis. J'ignore comment ces choses (l'inceste, les enfants morts, le suicide, la folie) se transmettent.Le fait est qu'elles traversent les familles de part en part, comme d'impitoyables malédictions, laissent des empreintes qui résistent au temps et au déni.
