Chère Marianne,

J’ai fini la lecture de ton livre que j’ai beaucoup aimé pour différentes raisons.

It’s a real journey for the reader, who really gets to experience what the narrator feels and goes through.

It is full of sensations, sensations of nature, sensations of water, of light, sensations of the body

The narrator is very generous in sharing what she feels, her vulnerability, her strengths–

I felt close to the other characters, the son, the father, the mother. I liked her a lot, she is so special, with such a nice spirit, sense of humor. I was very moved and touched all through the reading and of course at the end. It made me think about my mother and I wanted to be as good as the narrator is, to her.

The relations with men are also very interesting.

Also, the fact that the son is a man too, and is going to be another kind of man because he had such a great mother.

I really liked what the narrator says about the wound, this passage where she shares her research/work is very interesting.

I would very much like to read the thesis! If there is a possibility to read it?

So, wouaw, reading this book, Marianne, made me experience a bit of your experience and helped me grow as well. It is really a good book, that gives strength–strength to be vulnerable, strength to be what you want to be in life, strength to be free.
