A beautiful homage to the art of reading - light and funny. A
celebration of the union of sensuality and language.
Marie-Constance loves reading and possesses an attractive voice.
So, one day she decides to put an ad in the local paper offering
her services as a paid reader. Her first client, a paralysed
teenager, is transformed by her reading of a Maupassant short
story. Marie-Constance's fame spreads and soon the rich, the
creative and the famous clamour for her services. ------ Why
Peirene chose to publish this book: 'The premise of the story is
brilliant: a woman who loves reading aloud acquires - without
realizing - power over others. What's true for her clients becomes
real for you, the reader of this book. As you turn the pages, think
of Marie-Constance as the personification of "reading" itself. And
I promise you an experience you will never forget.' Meike
