Award-winning author Huston follows her bestselling novel, "Fault Lines," with an intensely provocative story about a passionate yet emotionally wounded woman's sexual explorations. She fearlessly investigates the links between family intimacies, between destruction and creation.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
--A "Globe and Mail" Top 100 Book of the Year
"Huston shows her mastery of complicated structure, wide culural knowledge, and brilliant, assured portraiture."--"The Globe and Mail"
"There is something eminently subversive in Nancy Huston's latest novel. A forty-five-year-old woman dares to talk about her sexuality, her immense desire for men. But even more, "Infrared" is a staggering expression of the power of art as salvation."--"Voir" (Canada)
"Compelling . . . A finely written examination of sexual politics and the importance of emotional triage."--"Quill & Quire"
"Poetic . . . A ruminative and sensual read."--Zoe Whittall, " National Post" (Canada)
"An intense and sensual novel"--"France Soir"
"Nancy Huston is in top form writing about individual and collective memories, and she knows better than most how to dramatize family destinies."--"Le Monde des Livres"
"Infrared, written in lyrical slivers and voluptuous prose is an engaging work."--"Canberra Times" (Australia)
