Louis, a caustic and resentful lawyer, has a huge "snake knot" in his heart - a cancer formed by decades of suspicion, indifference and resentment. He carefully planned a vicious revenge plan and decided to give away his huge inheritance to his illegitimate son in order to retaliate against his wife and children for turning a blind eye to him. He vented his dissatisfaction with his family in his suicide note until death came first. An accident turned his letter of accusation into a confession of repentance...
The Nobel Prize winner in literature analyzes human nature. Those who fail to have love may not have been able to truly give love.
Reader comments
"Those who fail to have love may not have been able to truly give love."
"I know my heart too well. It is like a 'snake knot', entangled and suffocated by swarms of poisonous snakes. It is soaked in venom, but it is still struggling to beat under the squirming."
"My sin lies not only in that abominable knot of hatred, revenge, and greed, but also in my refusal to explore anything beyond these venomous snakes. I cling to this filthy knot of snakes as if it were my heart itself, as if every beat of my heart is integrated with the wriggling movement of the venomous snakes."
Dead Marinette, dead Luc, dead Issa, they are all dead! Everyone I should have loved is dead, and those who may have loved me are no longer alive.
Because of this snake knot, it cannot be loved and cannot love.
A very good book. People who give you happiness will also give you pain.
I like this translation the most, but I can't find the physical book.

Well, I personally don't think that's the case. People who can't get love can still express love. No matter what their previous experiences, they can develop a healthy personality.
I really like this translation and read it in one sitting
I don't know why no one reads this excellent work on this platform.
