About This Book
A phantom appears in the streets of Prague: diaphanous and melancholy
she traces a tale of an unreal city, of trauma, desire and despair. This
most recent novel by the French magic realist Sylvie Germain is at once
lyrical and fleeting.
Intertwined are themes of poetry and history, of pain and vision,
identity and death. The novel draws a map of a postmodern city, a
neon-lit realm of status and nightmares, signs and graffiti.
This is a book of invisible images and impossible passion. From its
fragmented parts, Sylvie Germain forms a novel of such strange,
distressing sensuality, and such singular intensity, that few readers
will remain untouched.
