Product Description
by Frédérique Guétat-Liviani (Author), Nathanaël (Translator)
Fr d rique Gu tat-Liviani's but it's a long way is a peace treaty in the form of several soliloquies that, taken together, read like a death warrant or an obituary for an age that has never come. Transcribed from conversations with people of all ages living in public housing in the suburbs of Avignon, these narratives evoke itineraries between Morocco, Algeria, Albania, Spain, Mayotte, C te d'Ivoire, and France. The result is a magisterial work, a continental chorus that articulates a confluence of humanities.
