Alone with their bullying father on a vast estate, a sister and brother speak a language and inhabit a universe of their own making. When the old man commits suicide, they are forced into contact with the villagers and their cloak of romance and superstition quickly falls away to reveal shocking truths. Balancing naiveté with carnality, Soucy employs his signature playfulness, plot twists, and fascination with guilt, cruelty, and violence in a narrative tour de force where nothing is quite what it seems.
Credit Gaetan Soucy for writing such an original story and credit Sheila Fischman for translating a clearly difficult work. She preserves the awkward, many-layered meanings of Soucy's phrases. The entire work depends on her vivid, self-created language: Its authenticity is such that even in the story's most horrifying moments, it is possible to feel nothing, as she does, yet never stop turning the pages.
