Short description
A young woman returns to northern Quebec to the remote island of her childhood, with her lover and two friends, to investigate the mysterious disappearance of her father. Flooded with memories, she begins to realise that going home means entering not only another place but another time. As the wild island exerts its elemental hold and she is submerged in the language of the wilderness, she sees that what she is really looking for is her own past.Blurb
Front: "One of the most important novels of the twentieth century...utterly remarkable."
-New York Times Book Review
`I have to be more careful about my memories. I have to be sure they're my own and not the memories of other people telling me what I felt, how I acted, what I said '
A young woman returns to northern Quebec to the remote island of her childhood. With her lover and two friends, she is looking for traces of her father who has mysteriously disappeared. This overgrown, wild land holds secrets, and answers too - and they lie in wait -- just for her . . .
