Kamouraska

Translated into seven languages, Kamouraska won the Paris book prize and was made into a landmark feature film by Claude Jutra. A classic of Canadian literature by the great Québecoise writer, Kamouraska is based on a real nineteenth-century love-triangle in rural Quebec. It paints a poetic and terrifying tableau of the life of Elisabeth d'Aulnières: her marriage to Antoine Tassy, squire of Kamouraska; his violent murder; and her passion for George Nelson, an American doctor. Passionate and evocative, Kamouraska is the timeless story of one woman's destructive commitment to an ideal love.

"There is a persistent grandeur in Anne Hébert's writing that is startling in our time and in the current literary context in English. Both the tradition and iconoclasm in the work of this French poet of North America invite us to listen to something beyond our own conventions."--W.S. Merwin

History & Criticism

L'Enfant chargé de songes

SEUIL

Julien débarque à Paris. Il a traversé l’Atlantique pour s’affranchir d’une enfance passée en huis clos entre sa sœur et une mère à l’amour exclusif. Une enfance qui aurait pu rester éternelle sans l’apparition, un jour d’automne, d’une belle adolescente sauvage et libre qui va réveiller cette vie désincarnée. La plume d’Anne Hébert, austère et habitée, évoque, le temps d’un songe, le difficile passage à l’âge adulte. Née au Québec en 1916, Anne Hébert s’est, dès ses premiers écrits, placée au rang des grands poètes francophones contemporains. L’enfant chargé de songes a reçu le prix du Gouverneur général en 1992.
