Journal

By Marie Uguay

"With all its honesty, Journal is a moving account of a brief yet remarkable life." -- Literary Review of Canada

"Gripping and beautifully written. A work of art imbued with desire, loneliness, sadness, suffering but, above all, an ode to life." -- Lettres qu b coises

Written shortly before her death from bone cancer at the age of twenty-six, Marie Uguay's Journal weaves together prose and poetry to chronicle her philosophical questioning and her erotic longing for an impossible love. Despite the surgical changes imposed on her body and her mounting loneliness, Uguay's work evokes a lust for life and a passionate pursuit of artistic ambition. Journal, edited by St phan Kovacs and translated by Jennifer Moxley, demonstrates both the maturity of Uguay's voice and the raw emotions in her writing process, cementing her place in the Qu becois literary scene.
