Description
An ungrateful daughter, an undeserving mother, a grumpy mistress, a clandestine arms dealer, but also an altruist providing shelter to Quebec's homeless—such is Marie-Maude, but above all, she is eternally on the run, internally consumed by a 'white hole,' as she calls it. Driven by wild passions and a thirst for love, according to her biographer, she leads a life 'like a one-legged tightrope walker on barbed wire.' In this polyphonic novel with many unexpected twists, David Goudreault draws readers into the mysterious heart of one woman. In a book full of tension and humor, he skillfully juggles words (the author is, among other things, the 2011 world champion in slam poetry in Paris), creating a messy mosaic of diverse texts that ultimately gain meaning and reveal a shocking truth to the readers.
