This is above all a tragic and ordinary story. They are two girlfriends, two lovers who escape from home for a few days of vacation. They stop at a campsite on the shores of a lake. It is a hot summer's day and they are wearing bathing suits, laughing, and dive into the tempting water, not noticing a sign prohibiting swimming set on the shore. Anna hits her head on a rock and ordinary life has suddenly come to a stop. Anna will no longer walk, no longer move, no longer talk. Ever.The novel is built around three themes: the story told by the narrator of the few days of horror, recounted with moving simplicity and precision. The passages of the book that the narrator and her sister read to the paralyzed woman. The story of an expedition to the Arctic. And the thoughts of the patient presented as flashes of unbearable lucidity.
Valérie Sigward confirms her position as on of the major writers of her generation. In this book she reaches a very rare level of style: nakedness.
