Description

At the heart of this powerful coming-of-age tale lies a world of darkness and beauty. Adeline Dieudonné's debut novel is a sharp and funny exploration of family life, in which reality and fantasy collide. In a household where violence and submission reign, one young girl finds solace with her little brother Sam, playing among the shells of cars and listening for the ice-cream truck's familiar melody. But when a brutal accident shatters their world, the boundaries between truth and fantasy begin to blur. With flashes of brilliance, Dieudonné brings her characters to life in a world that is both dark and sensual. This is a story about growing up, about finding strength in the face of adversity, and about the enduring power of human connection.
