Emmanuelle Lazure, 36, a single mother, leads a seemingly balanced life until she loses “contact with [s]are desires. [S]are instincts. [S]”inner tornado”. Without realizing it, she switches to the side of depression. After several bad choices, constantly torn between the worried and panicked “disheveled” and the “wanabee-zen », two voices arguing within her, Emmanuelle embarks on a journey that takes her south. In a spontaneous writing, a fresh and straightforward language, Karine Glorieux skillfully and humorously deconstructs the taboos around the burnout, lifts the veil on the a priori and allows us to grasp the real pain of this invisible disease. Thanks to this whole, sensitive heroine, a little off the mark trackto the swarming and noisy fauna that gravitates around her – her children, her ex Nico, her friend Dom, her parents, Babeth – and to the many reflections around fatigue and the passage of time, the story of Glorieux turns out to be a happy crossing.
