SHORTLISTED FOR CBC CANADA READS 2019WINNER OF THE BEST TRANSLATED BOOK AWARDEightyfive years of art and history through the eyes of a woman who fled her family as reimagined by her granddaughter.Anas BarbeauLavalette never knew her mothers mother. Curious to understand why her grandmother, Suzanne, a sometime painter and poet associated with Les Automatistes, a movement of dissident artists that included Paulmile Borduas, abandoned her husband and young family, BarbeauLavalette hired a private detective to piece together Suzannes life.Suzanne, winner of the Prix des libraires du Qubec and a bestseller in French, is a fictionalized account of Suzannes life over eightyfive years, from Montreal to New York to Brussels, from lover to lover, through an abortion, alcoholism, Buddhism, and an asylum. It takes readers through the Great Depression, Qubec's Quiet Revolution, womens liberation, and the American civil rights movement, offering a portrait of a volatile, fascinating woman on the margins of history. And its a granddaughters search for a past for herself, for understanding and forgiveness.Its about a nameless despair, an unbearable sadness. But its also a reflection on what it means to be a mother, and an artist. Most of all, its a magnificent novel. Les Mconnus
