Additional information
by Nathalie Guilbeault (Author)
Nathalie Guilbeault is the author of the novels INHALED and WHEN I BECAME NEVER.
COLD CHAOS, Stories from a North, is the author's first collection of short stories.
Set in northern Quebec, where the author lived most of her adolescent years, the stories decompose the emotional and physical realities of living between the 49th and 55th northern parallels, inside the peacefulness and isolation of its landscape. Humorous, dark, and sometimes tragic, Guilbeault's fourteen stories wink at each other, bringing the reader into a larger narrative, one that brushes against the themes of loss; of love; of coming of age.
Auto-fictive in essence, Guilbeault's writings press on memory's core, a place where imagination and truths mingle.
