Publié en 1909, La Poudre aux yeux réunit cinq nouvelles où René Boylesve observe, avec une ironie fine et une sensibilité précise, l’empire des apparences. Jeux mondains, vanités tranquilles, pudeurs et mensonges: derrière la politesse des gestes, chacun tente de sauver la face ou de se faire valoir, quitte à jeter un peu de «poudre aux yeux». En quelques tableaux ciselés, l’auteur dévoile les failles du cœur et les petites comédies du quotidien, avec une lucidité douce-amère.

Cette voix, tour à tour hautaine, blessée et visionnaire, scrute le mal et la poésie elle‑même, en éprouve les limites et brûle ses illusions. Traversée désespérée et lumineuse, cette œuvre garde la modernité d’un cri: un pacte avec la nuit, une tentative de salut par les mots—jusqu’au silence.
