Les contes de f�es existent... La preuve ? Ce roman autobiographique, port� par la verve de la Qu�becoise Denise Bombardier. Ou comment, � plus de cinquante ans, une femme qui a toujours �t� � la pointe du combat f�ministe et v�cu plusieurs histoires d'amour compliqu�es et douloureuses qui ont sap� sa confiance dans les hommes rencontre, au moment o� elle ne l'esp�re plus, l'amour de sa vie...
R�pondant � l'invitation du Dr Philip T. Spencer, Denise B. accepte du bout des l�vres de se rendre � Belfast, en Irlande du Nord, o� cet �m�rite professeur � Trinity College organise un colloque. Elle s'attend � �tre accueillie par un vieil Irlandais barbu et bedonnant au visage ravin� par les pintes de Guinness. C'est tout le contraire qui se produit : le Dr Spencer est un Anglais francophile et 100 % British, beau " comme un acteur de cin�ma ', incroyablement s�duisant et pourtant tout l'inverse d'un s�ducteur. Tout l'inverse, surtout, de ce qu'elle a connu jusque-l�, ce qui est aussi d�stabilisant qu'attirant... Le coup de foudre est imm�diat.
Tour � tour dr�le et �mouvant, L'Anglais retrace la chronique de ce grand amour : l'improbable rencontre, la cristallisation, les �mois et angoisses des d�buts, l'attente et le d�sir, les " m�fie-toi, c'est trop beau pour �tre vrai ' des copines, les voyages pour se retrouver par-del� l'oc�an (Denise vit au Qu�bec, Philip � Dublin), jusqu'� la d�cision de la vie commune, ses (petits) al�as et ses �merveillements quotidiens, les pr�paratifs du mariage (l'essayage de la robe est un grand moment !), la c�r�monie, la lune de miel qui n'en finit pas de durer...
