"Dans le brouillard d’un port, un matelot nommé Querelle entraîne le lecteur dans un Brest interlope, inquiétant et aussi fascinant que sa palette de personnages absurdes. Aimantés par ce monde nocturne et portés par une narration irrégulière, nous suivons les pensées du narrateur au gré des lieux, des heures et de ses rencontres. D’une beauté plastique désarmante, Querelle attire et séduit malicieusement les victimes de ses meurtres. Ainsi, cet éphèbe se retrouve au cœur d’une affaire policière qui a pour théâtre le monde nocturne décadent de cette ville. Si l’homosexualité de Querelle n’est pas formulée, directement Genet évoque la sexualité du personnage avec un érotisme poétique sans détour." (présentation Gallimard)
