Twenty-one-year-old Justine has been living with her grandparents and cousin Jules since their parents died in an accident. Justine is a care assistant at Les Hortensias, a retirement home, and loves the elderly above all else. Hélène, in particular, is a centenarian who has always dreamed of learning to read. The two women befriend each other, listen to each other and reveal themselves to each other. Thanks to the resident, Justine gradually confronts the secrets of her own history. One day, a mysterious "raven" stirs up trouble in the nursing home and makes a terrible revelation.
Both funny and melancholy, this is a novel of past, present and unacknowledged loves... dazzling.


Justine, vingt et un ans, vit chez ses grands-parents avec son cousin Jules depuis la mort de leurs parents respectifs dans un accident. Justine est aide-soignante aux Hortensias, une maison de retraite, et aime par-dessus tout les personnes âgées. Notamment Hélène, centenaire, qui a toujours rêvé d'apprendre à lire. Les deux femmes se lient d’amitié, s'écoutent, se révèlent l'une à l'autre. Grâce à la résidente, Justine va peu à peu affronter les secrets de sa propre histoire. Un jour, un mystérieux « corbeau » sème le trouble dans la maison de retraite et fait une terrible révélation.
À la fois drôle et mélancolique, un roman d'amours passées, présentes, inavouées... éblouissantes.

FAQ

Here are the answers to the most common questions I get asked, please review them and reach out to me if you need more info on something, I love to help you pick the right book, just for you!

Are the books New?

Yes, all the books that I sell during my bookfairs or online on my e-boutique are brand new.. You will be the very first to flip all the pages and enjoy the feeling of holding your own book in your hand.

What defines the prices of the books?

As a passionate small business owner, my goal is to offer a high level of quality imported from France at the best price. I understand that some people may be surprised by the difference of price between French and American books. In France, books are more expensive as authors and illustrators get larger copyright compensations. Also, imports cost quite a bit if you take into account the price of transport as well as the weight of what is being transported. I appreciate your constant support, when you choose sustainable small businesses over large corporations.

Do you have a shop?

My main way of meeting you is book fairs, festivals and private sales. Ordering online through my e-boutique is the best way to support French Authors and Small Minority Owned business like mine. I also have a physical location present in Orange County accessible via appointment only. Please contact me through text to get more information!
