Produktbeschreibung

Literary Fantasy: This joins recent books such as Black Leopard, Red Wolf by Marlon James that are rooted in current issues (challenging male power, denunciation of sexual violence), but take place in a place and time more like a fairy tale.

French-Canadian Critical Darling: Marie-Hélène Poitras is already highly praised in French Canada, with outstanding reviews from Le Devoir, La Presse, Journal de Montreal, and many more.

A Rhonda Mullins Translation: Rhonda Mullins has translated many popular Coach House titles from French including Suzanne, And the Birds Rained Down, and The Laws of the Skies.

Weird shit going on in the woods: describes many Coach House translations; Sing, Nightingale may be the ne plus ultra of this list.

Autorenporträt

Marie Hélène Poitras was born in Ottawa and lives in Montreal. She received the Prix Anne-Hébert for her first novel, Soudain le Minotaure (2002, reissued by Alto in 2022; Suddenly the Minotaur, DC Books, 2006). Her short story collection La mort de Mignonne et autres histoires (Alto, 2017) was a finalist for the Prix des libraires du Québec. While Griffintown (Prix France-Québec and finalist for the Prix Ringuet) was inspired by her experience as a carriage driver in Old Montréal, Sing, Nightingale, an ode to creation, draws on her travels in the French countryside.
