De synthèse / The Imago State
by Karoline Georges
Description
A story of luminous lucidity, the kind that can free the consciousness and thrill the soul, De synthèse shines a light on the end of a filial relationship. It is told from the point of view of an image-obsessed woman reunited with her family just as her mother enters a terminal phase following a long period of suffering. It’s a story about the body, about disappearance, about reflections, about composition and decomposition. Winner of several literary awards.
