Hardback. Condizione: New. In a rigid postwar institution where friendships burn bright and heartbreak stings sharper than medicine, Mila must decide whether to retreat or risk everything for love. Within the cloistered world of a 1950s French sanatorium, sixteen-year-old Mila is learning more than just how to recover; she's learning how to want. Stranded among a cast of unruly girls, she navigates longing and the quiet defiance of being a young lesbian in a world that prefers silence. There's Marie, full of teasing bravado; the two Nicoles, who always weep; and Josette, who fills the air with accordion melodies. Then there's Paule, a striking staff member whose attention is intoxicating-until it isn't. Just as Mila begins to believe in the possibility of something real, Paule turns toward another, leaving Mila caught between jealousy and the aching pull of first love. Originally published in 1985, Hymn to Moray Eels is a rare and brilliant gem of queer literature, balancing wry humor with aching tenderness. Mireille Best's unsentimental prose captures the bittersweet contradictions of adolescence, creating a coming-of-age novel that is both deeply personal and strikingly universal.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. In 1950s France, Camille struggles to figure out who she is and where she fits in the world of her coastal working-class neighborhood. Her mother holds the family together, with the support of a group of women who talk over coffee and cigarettes each day. Her father, a war veteran, is largely silent except when his inner rage erupts in violence. Her sister, Ariane, provides comic relief, while her construction worker brother, Abel, is a lost soul who suffers from severe seizures. Camille herself can usually be found curled up with a book, observing everything.   But an intellectual and sexual relationship with her dentist's wife opens a world of new possibilities to Camille. Where will this lead her? Suicide, murder, accidental death-all are possible in this unconventional narrative from Mireille Best. As a young adult, Camille is not always the most reliable narrator, but she charms with her intelligence, lack of pretention, and strong connection to her roots. Through Camille's eyes, we embark on a fundamental and universal quest to balance where we come from with who we need to become. 1st Edition, Original French edition: Camille en Octobre (Gallimard, 1988). ISBN 9782070712458.…
