Mildred Pierce Book Reviews
Mildred Pierce by James M. Cain Book Summary
Nel 1941, subito dopo essersi affermato, il «noir» rivolse le sue armi contro se stesso – con questo libro, che alla ferocia del genere assomma quella, anche più implacabile, del «mélo». Fino alla sua uscita, le dark lady di innumerevoli romanzi (e di altrettanti film) usavano la seduzione per condurre qualsiasi maschio capitasse loro a tiro a forme di distruzione spesso molto peggiori della morte. Ma qui Cain – che di quelle storie aveva già scritto uno degli archetipi più potenti e imitati, «Il postino suona sempre due volte» – va molto oltre. Con le sue letali sorelle Mildred Pierce ha in comune il carattere, la capacità di andare dritta allo scopo – peraltro rispettabile, e cioè raggiungere un qualche benessere nell'America della Grande Depressione – e un fondato scetticismo nei confronti del genere maschile. Sul quale infatti trionfa, salendo uno alla volta tutti i gradini di un successo insperato, per una casalinga californiana malamente abbandonata dal marito. E in effetti niente sembrerebbe poter fermare l'ascesa di Mildred: niente, se non la sua immagine rovesciata, sua figlia Veda, la creatura forse più demoniaca di tutta la narrativa nera.
