From the family home where she has returned to live, a woman, speaking to her missing sister, summons memories of their childhood. Carrying a heavy past of patriarchal violence, she explores the possibilities of surviving this heritage, in a devastated rural landscape, where the hedges have disappeared and the forest is less thinning, surrounded by industrial corn fields. In this story composed of short chapters, Juliette Rousseau offers us a poignant, sensitive and luminous first literary text that pays tribute to the women of her family.
