Faces on the Tip of My Tongue

Faces on the Tip of My Tongue

Author(s): Emmanuelle Pagano

Location(s): France

Genre(s): Fiction

Era(s): Modern

Meetings, partings, loves and losses in rural France are dissected with compassion. The late wedding guest isn’t your cousin but a drunken chancer. The driver who gives you a lift isn’t going anywhere but off the road. Snow settles on your car in the middle of summer and the glitter found between the pages of a borrowed novel takes you into another world. Pagano’s stories weave together the mad, the mysterious and the dispossessed in rural France with honesty and humour. This is a superb cumulative collection from a unique French voice.
