«Lignes de faille» is the novel by Nancy Huston, published by Babel in paperback (488 pages, in French).
Four six-year-old children from different generations of the same family narrate the story: Sol, Randall, Sadie and Kristina. Each voice moves backwards in time and discovers how intimate conflicts and political upheavals of one era strike the next, from California to Germany, from Haifa to Toronto and New York. A novel about memory, identity, music and resistance against violence and lies.
Winner of the Prix Femina 2006. French-language edition from the Babel collection, no. 841.
For readers of contemporary literary fiction and family stories with historical background.
Nancy Louise Huston is a Canadian novelist and essayist, a longtime resident of France, who writes primarily in French and translates her own works into English.
