«États d'urgence» is André Brink's political novel, published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche in paperback (376 pages, in French).
In a country under a state of emergency, the majority lacks basic rights and freedom of movement and expression. The novel asks whether it is still possible to love and live fully, whether art can give what daily life denies, and whether love and creation are also territories where one lives in emergency.
