Mirror Lake - Paperback
by Andrée a. Michaud (Author), J. C. Sutcliffe (Translator)
From internationally acclaimed crime writer Andrée A. Michaud, a brilliant and original tragicomic thriller about one man's search for peace and sanctuary amid invasive neighbours and a mysterious death.
Retired fifty-something Robert Moreau flees a society he can no longer bear for Mirror Lake, Maine. Little does he suspect that an intrusive neighbour and a mysterious death will quickly dispel any illusions he may have had about finding sanctuary in isolation. The misanthropic Moreau quickly learns that his Thoreau-like vision is a fiction. And as in all fiction, nothing, not even Moreau's own identity, is certain -- except, perhaps, the friendship of his loyal dog, Jeff.
In this tragicomic novel of the confusion between the fabular and the real, brilliantly rooted in the forested Quebec-Maine landscape, Moreau is compelled to look deep in Mirror Lake's shimmering waters and into the eyes of the man he is, was, and could be. Winner of the Prix Ringuet and adapted into a feature film, Mirror Lake is a masterpiece of Michaud's canon, a playfully genre-mixing psycho-thriller that explores our mysterious existence and the bottomless self.
