Reviews

"The wideness of Dupr?'s work comes from the space left between vignettes, the breadth of the leap between moments, which takes on an emotional as opposed to a sequential logic, and which allows the reader to consider her own experience." - The Fiddlehead "Wry, startling, and brutally honest by turns, Dupr?...capture[s] adroitly the myriad complexities, tensions, and contradictions in the construction of femininity." - Canadian Literature "Observational and acute, Dupr? struggles with deep wounds, the scars of childhood and a loss of love. The relationship between a mother and daughter is rife with raw emotions ? anger, hatred, love, pain. It's both a reflection and a reflector." - Telegraph-Journal
