Anne Hébert: Collected Later Novels

This attractive trade paperback collection of Anne Hébert’s later novels includes some of the most accomplished and best loved fiction of her more than sixty-year career, and features an introduction by her dear friend and fellow acclaimed ex-pat writer, Mavis Gallant. This volume contains the beautiful and tragic Burden of Dreams, winner of the Governor General’s Award for French fiction; Aurélien, Clara, Mademoiselle, and the English Lieutenant, a shimmering fable that captivates and dazzles with its simple beauty; Am I disturbing you?, the raw and chaotic tale of a distraught young woman, nominated for the Giller Prize; and A Suit of Light, Hébert’s final novel about the realization of one family’s dangerous dreams. A genuine Hébert treasure trove, Collected Later Novels celebrates one of Canada’s most important writers.
