My Northern Mother

 ''When I was little, whenever I wrote something or painted a picture, I felt the need to ask my mother if it was good. I had to get permission from him.

I wonder what he would think about me writing about him today?

I'm worried, maybe he won't like the book. She must be tired of hearing about her alcoholic husband. The secretive and timid one does not want anyone to talk about him, his imaginary illnesses, his grief.

He will know how to read between the lines, that this book is a declaration of love, that I am making up for my mistake, who never said that I loved him, except for the words of praise dictated by our teacher for Mother's Day. Will he be able to understand?

Will he be able to understand that I wrote these to make him live again? Because I miss her.''

Another new family narrative from Jean-Louis Fournier.

My Northern Motherjust like other Fournier books: simple, poetic. and shocking...
