Book Description

Jacques Poulin's wonderful novel about a professional writer who composes and hand writes letters and documents for a living. He lives in the upper town of the old town of Quebec, in an apartment that shares a wall with Kim, a psychologist. The courtyard below Jacques' rooms is a home to Pretty Cat, who sleeps in the tree. The writer becomes involved with Kim when she reveals to him that she has been beaten — by a lover or a patient, he does not know.

About the Author

Jacques Poulin is the author of many novels, most of which have been translated into English by Sheila Fischman. In late spring of 2001, he was honoured with the Molson Prize by The Canada Council for the Arts. After spending several years in Paris, France, Poulin now lives and writes in Quebec City.

Sheila Fischman is one of Canada’s premier translators. She has translated over 125 books and for her work was awarded the Molson Prize in 2008. In 2007, her translation of Jacques Poulin’s novel My Sister’s Blue Eyes was a finalist for the Governor General’s Literary Award for Translation, and in 2006, her translation of Pascale Quiviger’s novel The Perfect Circle was shortlisted for the Scotiabank Giller Prize.
