Daughters Beyond Command by Véronique Olmi

Daughters Beyond Command by Véronique Olmi

A family chronicle, and that of an era, from May 1968 to the 1980s: passionate, heartfelt and profound.

“A beautiful story of familial love” * ActuaLitté *
“A book filled with tenderness." * La Croix *
“[A] gem of a novel … Heartstopping and heartbreaking.” * The Independent on Beside the Sea *
“The brilliance of Véronique's writing is that you become intimately acquainted with the speaker's thoughts … it unlocks you from the inside.” * Lisa Dwan (Actress, star of Bloodlands and Top Boy) *
“Full of wonder.” * The New York Times on Bakhita *
