""Ruiné par sa maîtresse, Oscar Révolou, un grand notaire bordelais, se suicide. Cette mort fissure la façade en même temps qu'elle révèle les fondations de deux familles estimées. Quand l'argent se retire des maisons bourgeoises, les cœurs apparaissent à sec, et ce n'est pas beau à voir. Une véritable banqueroute de l'âme, à laquelle n'échappent, in extremis, que deux figures du sacrifice : Rose, la répudiée christique, et Pierre, le jeune poète révulsé ... Roman de la damnation, de la prédestination, les Chemins de la mer constitue une sorte de sommet de la noirceur et du pessimisme mauriaciens."--Publisher's description."
"V tragických osudech rodiny zámožného notáře, jenž zpromevěřil svěřené peníze a vyhnul se odpovědnosti sebevraždou, i ve vázaných na ni osudech rodiny Costadotovy, ovládané matkou přímo posedlou vášní pro peníze, zobrazil autor s drsnou pravdivostí obludnou ůlohu peněz v měšťácké společnosti, která se podřizuje zásadě vyslovené jednou z hrdinek románu: "Peníze jsou pán, je nutné přijmout jejich zákon"."
