The
Extraordinary Garden
by François
Gravel
Translated by Sheila Fischman
Marc-André Fillion is married, with a son and a daughter.
In the opening lines of The
Extraordinary Garden he sums up his suburban love story: "I
desired her for seven years, I loved her for three days and three
nights, and then I spent seven years trying to forget her."
In his most recent novel, a continuation of sorts with the generation
following the three brothers of A Good Life,
François Gravel explores the territory mined by few Canadian
writers, life in suburbs. In the fourteen years captured by this
one love story, children grow up, friendships dissolve, and marriages
survive.
