| Description: |
Treading delicately between laughter and tragedy, Force of Gravity is a touching portrait of loneliness and the pursuit of happiness. |
| Synopsis: |
Very little fiction has been written about the subject of embalming. From the point of view of a middle-aged male embalmer, this book draws an elaborate metaphor between the act of caring for the dead and a life of determined isolation.This book also explores the subject of musical performance from the point of view of the book's second protagonist, a professional male pianist.Helene Vachon is a well-known French Canadian author with several awards under her belt, including the Governor General's Award, the Desjardins Literary Award, and the CBC Literature Awards (2nd prize in French). |
