Small Lives by Pierre Michon
Explores the act of writing through the intimate portraits of eight interconnected individuals in the author's native village of Creuse. In Michon's evocative poetic narrative, the quest to breathe life into the stories of these individuals becomes an exploration of the author's own voice. Michon does not deny the autobiographical nature of his haunting and seminal work, which only serves to heighten and empower the writing.
