When Anna discovers a long letter that her mother, Marie, wrote,
Marie has been dead for some time, and Anna is shocked to learn
that her mother disappeared with a secret. The letter is addressed
to Marie's first great love, a much older teacher who she describes
as a great dinosaur. In this gripping novel by Florence Noiville,
we follow along with Anna as she tries to unravel the mystery of
her deceased mother's past. She takes her questions to her family
and to her mother's friends: Did Marie send the letter? Was it
received? Who was this man, and is he still alive? In a desperate
search, she tries to piece together the clues. Attachment explores
the obsessive relationship of love, observing both mother and
daughter under its magnifying glass. Readers ultimately find Anna
and Marie both seeking answers to the same question: What is there
inside of us that makes us become so attached to someone we never
should have approached? The novel also questions the link between
love and writing, the stories that love inspires, and the way in
which we construct and own the story of our lives. Praise for the
French edition.
