Description
During a major power outage in the heat of a Montreal summer, two shy young neighbours finally take the time to slow down, meet, and spend time together. Beaulieau takes a microscope to the lives of a few citizens at a certain time and place and weaves their stories into a romantic tapestry. The perfect book to get you through the cold winter. Originally published in 2006 this translation is the second by Beaulieu in our BDANG imprint.
