Things saidNancy Huston

These poems about the writer’s disastrous relationship with an American author were written in English in the 1990s, but they had never been published, although she read some of them on stage or on the radio. She adapted them herself into French and published them in this collection in both languages, to revisit with self-deprecation a love at first sight doomed to failure.
