Coq

by Ali Bryan

Bryan’s writing is curt, pithy, and funny. It had me chuckling throughout and occasionally laughing out loud. Humorous and insightful, this tale of a chaotic, credible, Canadian family in Paris is warm and full of empathy. This book puts you in the centre of motherhood, family, divorce, grief, new lust, longing for the past and a desire to move forward, all at once, and leaves you with significant questions about them all. Quite a beautiful slice.
