She lives outside the village, in the woods, near the river, with her sister. Or her mother. She doesn’t really know. Her life is simple, but nothing ever stays the same. Her body is changing; life around her is changing, too. And there aren’t many people around who can explain to her what’s happening.A story with a sombre offbeat mood, guided along by a narrator using unique and colourful language.Originally published by Québec-Amérique as À l’abri deshommes et des choses
