Description

The author of "Volkswagen Blues" takes us on a veritable walking-tour of Québec City in this novel about a relationship between a public writer and an experimental therapist. In the text you will also find implicit references to "Volkswagen Blues," some comments on the errant translations of English novels by translators from France, and a brief trip to Old Orchard Beach, Maine. From Cormorant Books: "Jacques Poulin's wonderful novel about a professional writer who composes and hand writes letters and documents for a living. He lives in the upper town of the old town of Quebec, in an apartment that shares a wall with Kim, a psychologist. The courtyard below Jacques' rooms is a home to Pretty Cat, who sleeps in the tree. The writer becomes involved with Kim when she reveals to him that she has been beaten — by a lover or a patient, he does not know."
