'Born of No Woman proves that fiction can still amaze'
Le Monde

L'Express
'A choral novel radiating with black light'
Elle
Nineteenth-century rural France.
Before he is called to bless the body of a woman at the nearby asylum, Father Gabriel receives a strange, troubling confession: hidden under the woman's dress he will find the notebooks in which she confided the abuses she suffered and the twisted motivations behind them.
And so Rose's terrible story comes to light: sold as a teenage girl to a rich man, hidden away in a old manor house deep in the woods and caught in a perverse web, manipulated by those society considers her betters.
A girl whose only escape is to capture her life - in all its devastation and hope - in the pages of her diary...
Translated from the French by Lara Vergnaud
