Fiction
In the Heart of a Golden Summer
by Anne Serre
Description
An unknown mother who looks like Liz Taylor, a dearly loved father who thinks he is Musset, a married lover who plays with a revolver, another who appears the day Beckett dies, friends in Germany, Corsica, and England, whose memory has sometimes almost faded, and an I, feminine or masculine, vulnerable or murderous, appear in turn, as one knocks down cards, in this new game by Anne Serre, placed under the sign of Lewis Carroll.

Reviews
“We sense everywhere the insolent Anne Serre in this playful collection, written and composed with wonderful delicacy.”
Télérama
"Genuinely original – and often very quietly so. Prim and racy, seriously weird and seriously excellent."
