Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and
haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in
La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals
different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive,
seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her
obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and
paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie
NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary
entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with
and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more
questions than it answers.
