(1) YA Translated by Y. Maudet. This beautifully written novel about a young refugee boy, Koumail, and his guardian, Gloria, who, in the mid-1990s, leave their war-torn home in the Caucasus and head for France, is full of harsh yet tender moments. As Koumail grows older, the mystery of his origins and of Gloria's past deepen. Bondoux evokes their journey in prose that is both exquisitely poetic and unsparing.
