Chloé has just settled into Montreal after the rupture of her relationship with Justin in Toronto. She takes a job as an advertising representative for an upscale consumer magazine, and is immediately swept off her feet by Claude, the editor. Her reconnection with her French Canadian soul is initially exhilarating, but soon turns out to be disastrous. She loses her footing and enters her own world of glass, a fragile, hypersensitive realm that eventually shatters. In this strongly cinematic narrative, we are taken inside Chloé's mind and experience the world through her point of view. Unsparing in its honesty, this novella is compelling, highly believable and powerfully told.
