Nine Lives

A Reunion in Paris

Beschreibung

Return to the sweetness of lives lived through this series of epistolary short fictions by one of Souwesto's most gifted and important writers and storytellers. Nine Lives: A Reunion in Paris affords us a fictional look into how lives connect, how origins happen, and the role of fatherhood in light of the various ways that relationships unfold. Gervais, the great lyricist and storyteller unfurls a series of tales that pour forth over borders, uniting people in its pooling richness, akin to a fine French wine overflowing from its glass.
