About the Author Adeline Dieudonné (1982) lives in Brussels.
This breathtaking debut is a sharp and funny coming-of-age tale in which reality and fantasy collide.
The uncompromising pen of Adeline Dieudonn wields flashes of brilliance as she brings her characters to Life in a world that is both dark and sensual.
The young narrator spends the days with Sam, playing in the shells of cars dumped for scrap and listening out for the melody of the ice-cream truck, until a brutal accident shatters their world.
Her father is a big-game hunter, a powerful predator, and her mother is submissive to her violent husband\'s demands.
