Details: Product Description Locked in a room from which she sees the crowd of men coming towards her, a young woman, promised to who has enough dollars in her pocket to believe herself elected, transcribes between two clients the incantations which still keep her alive. Then rises a scandalously intimate song of pleasure and death which nevertheless conceals something archaic and invading, even universal. An incestuous, fantastical and obsessive book, which is as much a stripping bare, a cry, as an exorcism. About the Author Born in Quebec, on the edge of Maine, in 1975, Nelly Arcan is also the author of remarkable novels, in particular Folle, available in Points. She committed suicide in September 2009 in Montreal.
