Praise
One of my favorite writers in the world is Jacques Poulin.
— Rawi Hage
This is a great and very beautiful novel.
— Le Devoir
The writer hiding from the world in his house on the beach is as shy and charming and friendly as this light, generous, refreshing novel. . . told with Hemingway-like sparseness and minimal melodrama. . .Poulin earns his lump-in-the-throat ending.
