A trop aimer

by Alissa Wenz

Description

A woman in love frees herself from a man’s grip by attempting to define the essence of love.

“A remarkable guy,” “a totally free spirit”… That’s how Tristan is described to her the first time. He writes her a note to express his admiration. He loves her songs, her music. She’s flattered and moved; he seems to understand her. And then they meet. She’s enchanted. Tristan is like nobody else. He’s smart, funny, incisive... An amazing artist who transforms dream into reality. With him by her side, Paris is transformed into a huge playground where they recite poems while laughing at passersby. Everything is joyful and magical. Tristan is totally extraordinary, different from any man she’s ever met.

But his unique nature comes with a price. The world is too narrow for Tristan, who can’t stand rules of any kind. But she is madly in love... An infinite love that can absorb pain, anxiety, night terrors, and then, little by little, increasingly bad and violent moods. But how far will she go? Forgetting the music that is her passion? Closing herself off to muffle the insults? Making herself as small as possible? Is that love?
