Reviews
'A dreamy, underwater experience, this brief novel by Thériault is a hallucinogenic dive into another realm... Here is a fragile poetry, charming and childlike in its simplicity, yet profound on the unfathomable depths of loss, of love.', 'What a beauty this book is... "Quirky" and "charming" have been used to describe [Thériault's] books, but they are so much more than that.', 'Thériault is a writer with a lightness of touch, allowing him to explore darker themes in a way that never feels heavy, but always engages. The result is a debut that draws you into its own intriguing, evocative world.'

- 1***n (826)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis small paperback was originally a brief overview for this art exhibition ; it arrived in good condition but honestly thought that it was a bit overpriced for the modest catalogue that it was. I ended up giving it to a young student who loves history and the arts from the 18thcentury ( as do I ) . A nice intro to a wonderful subject - the Grand Tour in Europe . Thank you
