Wait now, light me up so we do this right, yes, hold me steady to the lamp, hold it, hold, good, a slow pull to start with, to draw the smoke low into the lungs, yes, oh my...Shuklaji Street, in Old Bombay. In Rashid's opium room the air is thick with voices and ghosts: Hindu, Muslim, Christian. A young woman holds a long-stemmed pipe over a flame, her hair falling across her eyes. Men sprawl and mutter in the gloom. Here, they say you introduce only your worst enemy to opium. There is an underworld whisper of a new terror: the Pathar Maar, the stone killer, whose victims are the nameless, invisible poor. In the broken city, there are too many to count.Stretching across three decades, with an interlude in Mao's China, it portrays a city in collision with itself. With a cast of pimps, pushers, poets, gangsters and eunuchs, it is a journey into a sprawling underworld written in electric and utterly original prose.

Narcopolis s’ouvre à Bombay, en 1970, quand nous faisons la connaissance de Fossette, eunuque et prostituée. Elle est hôtesse dans une fumerie d’opium de Shuklaji Street, la principale artère du quartier rouge. Tandis qu’elle préside au cérémonial de la drogue, elle aime partager SA vision du monde avec la faune qui fréquente son établissement : Rumi, dont la drogue de prédilection est la violence elle-même, Newton Xavier, peintre fameux qui cherche l’adulation tout en la rejetant violemment, de même que toute une galerie de poètes, de prostituées, de souteneurs et de gangsters. Roman de la marge et des situations extrêmes, Narcopolis est d’abord et avant tout un roman de l’humain, trop humain. Loin de toute tentation moralisatrice ou documentaire, Thayil nous émeut en décrivant avec une précision inouïe la part d’ombre qui se cache en nous et nous oblige à voir ce sur quoi nous préférons souvent fermer les yeux. Même au plus profond de leur abjection, prisonniers des chaînes qu’ils se sont eux-mêmes données, les personnages de Thayil, et Fossette au premier chef, restent si proches de nous que nous partageons leurs extases, leurs terreurs et, surtout, leurs espoirs.
