Book Description:
"An infrared view of Sex and the City, a snapshot plunged in an acrid bath."-"The Globe and Mail"
"With an extraordinary sense of the mechanisms of love and the empathy of a saint for the human race, Celine Curiol gives us the most original and the best new book of the year."-"Marie Claire"
"Recalls the most disturbing moments in Marguerite Duras's work...[A] strange, sinister and compelling novel."-"Financial Times"
"The product of exquisite craft...It manages to be technically accomplished while being technically daring."-"Women's Review of Books"
