The Braid by Laetitia Colombani
Reviewed by Rozz
This well-crafted debut novel follows the lives of three women who appear to be very different in culture, geography (India, Sicily, Canada), and life experience. However, as Colombani weaves her narrative, we come to see that they have much more in common in many ways.
A compact, very satisfying read that left me looking forward to Colombani’s next work.
The Braid was translated from French by Louise Rogers Lalaurie and published by Picador.To find out more about our digital library and membership offerings visit our website.
